(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 05, 2012 ) Battle Creek, MI – Compost is organic material that is used a natural fertilizer for gardens and plants. Compost can enrich the soil for plants to grow in by putting nutrients back into the ground. Compost can be purchased at garden centers or one can create it through organic means. This will also help to reduce ones carbon footprint.

Battle Creek Dumpster wants to invite local consumers to start composting rather than just throwing their food scraps away. One usually thinks that food waste, such as, fruit and vegetables rinds and meat scraps, can be thrown just about anywhere because it degrades and disintegrates through time. Battle Creek Dumpster wants to remind residents that while it does degrade, food waste can also contaminate every item that goes in with it. Bacteria, Germs, Molds and other elements can grow with these materials, making the waste unfit to be recycled or recovered.

Creating a Compost

Green Waste is created from: Vegetable peelings, fruit, tea bags, coffee grounds, grass clippings, old flowers, and green leaves. This adds nitrogen to the compost. It decomposes faster acting like a catalyst to the pile.

Brown Waste is created from: Paper, dry leaves, magazines, twigs and wood chippings create brown waste. This adds carbon to the compost. It does not decompose as quickly but is important to the composting pile. Having a balance between these two elements is crucial.

Various organic materials can be added into the pile, such as eggshells, older plants, cotton, wool and even hair. These materials are all biodegradable, meaning they will all break down.
Do not add meat or dairy to the pile as this will entice pests in your garden. Too much nitrogen can cause the compost to smell, to solve this, add more brown waste such as grass or old newspaper.

Composting not only helps the soil in the garden but it also helps reduce the amount of trash one has, helping the “Go Green” effort. For bigger, bulkier waste that can occur with renovations, landscape and yard clean up, a dumpster will help one to keep the area clean, safe and make the job easier to finish. Battle Creek Dumpster carries a variety sizes for many different jobs.
