GoZERO provides the infrastructure, education, and operational support needed to keep food scraps out of landfills and turn them into a valuable resource.
Our services are designed to support communities, businesses, institutions, municipalities, and partner organizations at every stage of the composting process — from learning and collection to processing, distribution, and long-term program development.
Through the GoZERO Institute, we provide education, training, and resources for individuals and organizations looking to better understand composting, food waste reduction, and circular resource systems.
Our education services help communities build knowledge, confidence, and practical skills around composting and sustainable organics management.
Education services may include:
Composting education
Food waste reduction training
Workshops and community programming
Organizational training
Technical guidance and resources
GoZERO provides collection services that make food scrap diversion simple and reliable.
We work with households, businesses, institutions, and community partners to collect food scraps and transport them to a composting facility where they can be processed responsibly.
Our collection services are designed to be practical, accessible, and scalable.

GoZERO accepts food scraps at our facility from approved partners and programs.
Reception services are designed for organizations, haulers, institutions, and communities that need a responsible destination for collected food scraps.
By receiving food scraps at our site, we help keep organic material out of the landfill and move it into a composting process that creates long-term value.
GoZERO supports compost distribution by helping move finished compost into the hands of those who can use it.
In some cases, partners send trucks to our site, and we load them with compost for transportation and use elsewhere.
This service helps connect compost production with farms, landscapers, community projects, soil-building initiatives, and other end users.

GoZERO provides development support for organizations and communities looking to build, improve, or expand composting operations.
We bring operational, legal, financial, and strategic capabilities to bear so that composting programs are built on a stronger foundation.
Development services may support planning, compliance, business structure, operational design, partnership development, and long-term sustainability.
GoZERO helps enable other organizations by providing the systems, support, and infrastructure they need to operate effectively.
Similar to how many nonprofit networks function, our enablement services allow partners to focus on their mission while GoZERO helps provide the operational back end.
This may include administrative support, program infrastructure, compliance support, systems development, strategic guidance, or shared-service support.
GoZERO is more than a collection service. We are building a composting ecosystem.
From education and collection to reception, distribution, development, and enablement, our work supports the people and systems needed to make food scrap diversion successful at scale.
Whether you are looking to start a composting program, improve an existing one, send food scraps to our site, access finished compost, or build a larger partnership, we would love to talk.
