OFFERING YOU THE POWER OF GROUP PURCHASING SINCE 1998
Recycling Connections is proud to continue to offer our annual “bulk” purchase of backyard compost bins to municipalities, schools, and organizations across the country!
Promote backyard composting to help your community reach its food waste reduction goals or other sustainability strategies and get the best pricing on the BEST backyard composter on the market: the Home Composter™.
Only available to purchase through non-profit/municipal organizations, the Home Composter™ is not sold in stores. Its manufactured in the United States and made out of recycled plastic that is sturdy, yet lightweight for easy transportation. The base price for each bin depends on the total group order. There is a slight increase in pricing due to labor costs from the manufacturer, but you can expect pricing to be around $55-$60 per bin, shipping included. You set your own bin price to help you meet your community goals, divert more waste, and save space in landfills!
DON'T FORGET ABOUT OUR ONLINE PRE-SALE OPTION!
Let Recycling Connections handle your sale – we set up an online store tailored specifically to your community which allows customers to pre-purchased their bin and pay with a credit card. This works great for organizations that aren’t able to handle transactions.

Partnering Community Testimonial
“Our expanded Backyard Composting Program with bins from Recycling Connections has been a huge success! Participants are self-reporting the number of pails they fill, and so far we are at over 11,000 pails of food scraps collected and put in compost bins! Hard to tell for sure, but we estimate this to be about 40,000 pounds kept out of the garbage.
Thank you for your working in making these kinds of programs possible – it is so fun to be able to tell residents that they are part of making a BIG impact!”
-Cedar Walters, Otter Tail County Solid Waste Department, MN
