Approximately one-third of Boston's trash is food waste.

Composting your food scraps in a Project Oscar bin, or curbside pickup, helps by turning food waste into compost. It also helps address rodent problems by getting food waste out of the trash.

Find a bin near you! boston.gov/project-oscar
It’s been a long time coming! As of today, Beacon Hill and Fenway are now home to Project Oscar bins.

Big thank you to Public Works, BHCA, FCA and many others who made it happen!

If you have any questions about the bin please email zerowaste@boston.gov or visit Boston.gov/project-oscar
