The City of Framingham is partnering with Black Earth Compost to provide curbside composting for eligible households of 4 or less units. Simply put your bin by the curb on collection day and Black Earth Compost hauls away all of your compostable material.

The City of Framingham is providing one free bin and roll of liner bags per household for new subscribers to Black Earth Compost, while supplies last. Bins are being funded through a grant from MassDEP.

I am a long time composter and happy to talk about my experiences!

There are currently 4 curbside options with Black Earth Compost, as we build more density, the cost will go down:

• Weekly Collection – $80.99 every 6 months
• Weekly Collection – $14.99 per month
• Every Other Week Collection – $63.99 every 6 months
• Every Other Week Collection – $11.99/month
