Your trash
can do better.

A local Fredericksburg compost collection service making it easier for you to care for the environment.

Caring for the planet is great!

But it can also seem like a daunting task.

At the same time, we toss things into the trash every day that will head to a landfill when, instead, they could be turned into rich soil. Soil that could grow some really good things in the future.

Composting takes those coffee grounds, egg shells, pepper seeds, lettuce ends, banana peels, and so much more, and transforms them. It’s one of the most impactful ways to regularly do our part to care for the earth.

Now, what if you were able to enjoy the good feeling + all of the benefits of composting without the uphill battle (time, energy, space, and know-how) of having to actively manage a whole compost system?

You can still do it without having to do it all on your own.

Good To Grow offers a straightforward and simple collection service to help you turn your kitchen scraps into rich compost. We provide the supplies, clear instructions, and an easy pickup process. And on top of that, you can earn points for getting some of that great finished compost as well!

Residential Compost Collection Service,
pickup every other week

$24/month or $275/annual (saving $13!)


We provide you with a clean, 6 gallon container and you’re off to collecting those kitchen scraps. Every other Friday we will come by for curbside pick up to take your filled container and replace it with a clean new one. Easy!

Commercial Compost Collection Service,
weekly pickup

$38/month or $440/annual (saving $16)


Not only will we resource your kitchen with containers for collection, but we’ll also give your team clear instructions for what should and shouldn’t go in there. Customized pickup schedule to best fit your business.

Good To Grow Points

(Where the good that you’re doing for the planet gets even better for you!)

You get the end product—finished compost!

With every pickup, you’ll earn a Good To Grow Point. After 20 points you’ve earned 10 gallons of finished, nutrient-rich compost that’s ready to go right into your garden!

Or if you’re not really growing much at your home, we can arrange for that finished compost to be given to one of our non-profit partners on your behalf. How good is that?!

The Grow-getter

Hi, my name’s Jonathan. I love gardening. I love all things outdoors. And honestly, I just hate seeing good things go to waste.

For years I’ve been composting for my (ever-expanding) home garden. I’ve seen how much it lowers our home’s waste and have also witnessed how much the finished compost helps our plants grow healthier.

And I’m convinced: Everyone should feel this good about how they handle their everyday trash!

If you would love to do your part to take care of the earth but struggle to know where to begin, I feel your pain. That’s why I decided to start Good To Grow.

I wanted to help other conscientious Fredericksburg neighbors and businesses enjoy the benefits I’m experiencing in a way that’s easily accessible.

“Good To Grow fills an important niche for me as a part-time gardener who also works full time. I want to be proactive about protecting the environment and reducing waste, but I simply don’t have the time or energy to compost on my own.

They make it easy with a clean, convenient container picked up every two weeks. I know our food scraps are being put to good use instead of going into the trash, and I get to benefit from the finished compost in my garden. It’s an easy way to make a more environmentally responsible choice, and Jonathan is always friendly and professional. I highly recommend Good To Grow!”
