The composting collection will be made every week on the same day as recycling pick-up. According to the city, compost bins must be 55 gallons or less and lined with a clear plastic, paper or compostable bag. Those bins can be full of leaf and yard waste, food scraps and food-soiled paper -- which also includes meat, bones, dairy, and "greasy uncoated paper plates and pizza boxes."
