WasteNot Compost

Throwback to last year’s 4th of July Parade 🎆♻️🇺🇸

WasteNot participated with one of our electric trucks that got to carry a very special garbage monster thanks to our friends at Cross Community Climate Collaboration (C4).

We hope everyone has a safe and sustainable celebration tomorrow!

At WasteNot, we believe sustainability means caring for people and the planet.

That means creating a world where everyone—no matter who they love or how they identify—feels seen, respected, and valued. This Pride Month, we’re celebrating love, inclusion, and the strength that comes from diversity—on our teams, in our communities, and across the industries we serve.

Building a better future means showing up for each other, so let’s waste less and love more. 🌍🌈♻️
