Food waste in landfills across the U.S. causes greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to more than 50-million gas powered passenger vehicles. That is just food waste! By diverting your organic waste to Soilutions, you are protecting the planet, improving the climate and participating in creating a more sustainable future.

With the help of sustainability minded businesses and individuals who choose to compost their organic waste, we have diverted 60,000,000 lbs of organic waste from the landfill and counting!
