Multi-Family Composting FAQ

Compost Code Compliance

Jurisdictions all throughout the country are implementing composting regulations which require single-family and multi-family residences, and commercial operations, to utilize a composting system for discarded organic food material. These wide scope policies affect all the aforementioned operations.

The Chute Company provides professional guidance and turn-key system improvements, along with code-compliant and fire-safe new construction. We’re professionals in helping your property become compliant, with:

  • Multi-Sorting Technology – Utilize existing chute systems with a retrofit which enables a user to select Garbage or Compost prior to using one single chute. A sorting device at the bottom of the chute then sends the waste to the selected destination.
  • New Chute Installations – Building a separate compost chute into a new multi-family or commercial construction build is an economical initial investment. If there is space within an existing chute column for an additional chute, we can facilitate a retrofit upgrade to an existing building within the existing system that looks just like the rest of your system.
  • First-Floor Compost Solutions – We have low-budget, less convenient options for discarding compost waste that will bring your waste system into code. These solutions are good options for existing structures that do not have the room for a retrofit or budget for a sorter.
