COMPOSTING PROJECT

YSEC x YCC x PEELS & WHEELS COMPOSTING

The Compost Bin Project aims to expand access to composting services at Yale and encourage individual initiative in sustainability through organic waste diversion. We are excited to offer students a subsidized subscription plan for weekly compost pickup by Peels & Wheels, a New Haven-based compost collection operation!

NOTE: YSEC and the YCC (Yale College Council) currently fund this program for off-campus Yale students in New Haven only.

For information on what materials are acceptable for composting, please visit the Peels & Wheels FAQ page here. Please email the project head Leah Clayton (leah.clayton@yale.edu) for any questions.

DETAILS & SIGN-UP

*Participants receive a 3.5-gallon bin with a lid for organic waste collection.

*The monthly fee will remain consistent for the duration of the program, even if you choose to skip a weekly pickup (e.g. you will be temporarily away from New Haven).
