Home MenuTempe's Compost Program
Tempe collects green organics through a curbside program and hauls it to a vendor for processing and reuse. Residents can purchase loose compost by the cubic yard at a 10 percent discount from Grow-Well brands by calling 602-269-5784 or visiting 2807 S. 27th Ave in Phoenix.
To receive the discount pricing, residents will need to provide proof of residency in the form of a current utility bill and ID. Please note that the compost is sold loose and not bagged.
Tempe's City Council has set a goal to divert citywide landfill use by 20% by 2025, and the city thanks its residents for helping to achieve that goal by composting.
