Smart Waste Solutions for Greener Events

O-Town Compost Zero Waste Event.jpg

The average wedding in the U.S. produces 400 pounds of trash. The average conference attendee generates about 4.2 lbs. of waste per day, much of which can be recycled, composted, or donated. Additionally, events typically produce 1 pound of waste per attendee per meal, with variations depending on meal type and serviceware used.

Partnering with O-Town Compost can cut event waste by up to 80%, making sustainability effortless and impactful.

O-Town Compost brings expert sustainability solutions to make your event truly green. Our services are tailored to meet your specific needs, ensuring an effortless and effective composting experience


From Planning to Impact: How We Make Your Event Green

  • Consultation

    • Before your event begins, we collaborate with all event vendors to optimize purchasing decisions and implement an efficient waste management system. We ensure all serviceware is genuinely compostable and fully compatible with our composting process.

  • Providing Infrastructure 

    • Ensure your event has the right number of bins and compostable bags, with seamless delivery and pickup for a hassle-free setup.

  • Bin Placement and Signage

    • We optimize the placement of recycling, solid waste, and food waste bins while providing clear signage to reduce guest confusion and prevent contamination.

  • On-site Monitoring and Sorting

    • To maintain a clean waste stream and reduce post-event sorting, we provide an on-site “waste ambassador” to guide waste flow and ensure proper disposal throughout the event.

  • Hauling and Processing of Food Waste 

    • We handle food waste removal seamlessly, transporting it to our facility for responsible composting. If your venue lacks recycling, we ensure recyclables are properly collected and free from contamination, so they end up in the right place.

  • Hauling of Recyclables

    • Many event venues in Florida lack recycling services. If yours is one of them, we ensure recyclables are properly collected and kept free from contamination, so they end up in the right place.

  • Data Collection and Reporting 

    • After your event, we provide key metrics that highlight your environmental impact—such as the total pounds of waste diverted from the landfill—so you can see the difference you’ve made

  • Donation of Compost

    • A portion of the finished compost from your event is donated to Fleet Farming or 4 Roots Farm, supporting local agriculture and sustainability efforts
