Customer Notice
Discovery Compost, fill a bag for £1.00 currently in stock and available for purchase from Riverside Composting Facility. See Compost Information section for more details.
Discovery Compost is produced locally by the Council from the garden waste you put into your brown wheeled bin, both the household waste recycling centres (HWRCs) plus green waste produced from local parks and commercial landscapers.
Garden waste is a valuable resource and by diverting it from our Energy from Waste facility, we are helping to reduce our carbon footprint as well as making a useful end product.
Discovery Compost is certified to Publicly Available Specification 100 (PAS 100) standard which guarantees it is of a consistently high quality and is fit for purpose. The standard covers the entire composting process from the raw materials through to how the finished product is labelled and means producers know they are making a quality product and buyers know they are receiving quality compost.
