We make composting easy!
We started Bennett Compost to make composting easy for Philadelphians from South Philly to the Northeast and everywhere in between. Our five-gallon bucket is the perfect size for individuals and families, and comes with an airtight snap on lid that keeps smells in and pests out. We pick up buckets weekly from homes and apartment buildings throughout Philly weekly, and can even drop off a fresh bucket or an order of our compost products at the same time.

Compost pickup.
Please leave your bucket outside in the evening before your collection day—we’ll make sure it’s emptied in the morning! Many of our pick-ups are done via bicycle, highlighting our commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly practices.

Order your soil.
Being a compost company, we naturally offer organic soil products for sale. Our high-quality compost is made from a blend of food scraps, wood chips, and leaves—all sourced from our residential and commercial clients here in Philadelphia.
