FAQs

Did you know that up to 50% of household waste is composed of food waste? By helping your municipality address food waste, you are supporting your community's environmental initiatives, while reducing your carbon footprint.

Not much! Purchase a FoodCycler from your municipality at a subsidized cost, track your use once a week for a period of 12 weeks and then answer a brief exit survey.

1- Register by completing the registration form https://bit.ly/FCSCochrane 

2- Make a payment to secure your spot (Town Hall)

3- All units will be available for pickup on a specific day (mid-December)

4- Track the amount of waste you divert with a tracking sheet (instructions to be provided with unit)

5- Fill out a closing survey at the end of the 12-week period
