Food Scraps Pickup Acceptable Items
All Plant Matter
If it used to grow in the ground, it's probably acceptable. Lettuce leaves, stems, seeds, pits, husks & shells are just fine to go in the bucket or bin. Apple cores, banana peels, peach pits, avocado pits and skin, coconut husks, potato peels, orange peels, etc, can all go in the bucket or bin.
Bread and Baked Goods
Have some moldy bread or a half eaten sandwich? Even cooked or frozen foods. Do a freezer clean out and you can just toss it in the bucket or bin.
Bones leftover from cooking
Bones are just fine for putting into the bucket or bin. Yes, even fish bones. They'll break down, and if they still have a little meat on them, it's okay.
Egg Shells
These break down, too, so feel free to put your egg shells in the bucket.
Coffee and Tea
Both are just fine (along with filters), just be sure to remove any staples from tea bags if possible
Paper Products
Mop up kitchen counters or spills with paper towels or napkins and then you can just pop them in the bucket or bin, too, as long as no chemical cleaning agents were used.
