The City of Albuquerque offers an online waitlist form for residents who are interested in participating in the Compost Hub Program. Residents can complete the online form and when there is availability, they can pick up a composting bucket, take it home and start collecting accepted food waste items. Then you can drop off the bucket with food waste at McKinley Community Center, 3401 Monroe NE and empty it into the green food waste roll cart during the Center’s regular hours. The food waste will be taken to a nearby compost facility which will turn it into compost to be used locally to help build healthy soil and grow plants.
