“You may have noticed these green disposal bins in our Dock area, tucked behind the recycling dumpsters. They may be used by residents who subscribe to Blockbins.com, a Chicago-based composting service. Rates start at $10 a month for compostable waste, which is treated at a facility here in Chicago and sold to landscapers and municipalities to create green spaces.
Composting is not offered by our building’s primary recycler; garbage tossed down the chutes goes to landfill. Blockbins is a green alternative, but it requires a core group of subscribers to assure its continuation at PT.”
