​
PERSONAL
-
Remove Any Non-Compostable Components, such as stickers or labels.
-
Shred or Tear into Smaller Pieces: To speed up decomposition, tear or shred the mailer into smaller pieces. This increases the surface area exposed to microbes, allowing for quicker breakdown.
-
Layer in Compost Bin or Pile: Place the shredded mailer pieces in your compost bin or pile. Layer them with other compostable materials like food scraps, yard waste, or paper.
-
Monitor moisture and temperature
-
Wait for Completion: Depending on conditions and the composition of the mailer, composting may take a few weeks to several months. Continue to maintain the compost pile until the mailer has fully decomposed.
-
Use Compost: Once the mailer has broken down into rich, dark compost, it can be used to enrich soil in gardens, flower beds, or potted plants.
COMMUNITY
-
Many cities offer community composting programs where residents can drop off food scraps and other compostable materials at designated locations. Check if your city has such a program and participate if available.
-
Utilize Municipal Services: Some cities provide curbside composting pickup services alongside regular trash and recycling collection. Take advantage of these services if availalable
