Quinte Waste Solutions encourages the use of backyard composters to assist our community
in diverting more waste from landfill. With many landfills in Ontario closing, the need to extend the life of the remaining landfills is becoming more important. In the Quinte region, over 40% of waste that ends up in our landfills are things that could be composted.
Getting Started

- Quinte Waste Solutions can provide you with a durable, high-capacity composter for $60.00.
- A kitchen compost pail is a convenient way for you to transport your organic material from your kitchen to your composter.
