Please place food scraps in a bag prior to placing them in the food scrap side of the cart. Any type of clear plastic bag (i.e. bread bag or produce bag) is acceptable to contain food scraps and can be placed in the food scraps side of the split cart. To keep your cart neat and tidy, be sure to tie-off bags before placing them in the food scraps side of the cart. The plastic will get screened out during the pre-processing of the food scraps.
