Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to take the food out of the packaging?

Excluding styrofoam eggs cartons and glass, you can leave the food in its original packaging.

How do we prevent odors and pests?

Please make sure the lid is completely closed after every single use to minimize odors and keep pests out. Your pest- and tamper-resistant container will be regularly emptied and rinsed to keep your site clean and fresh.

What do I do if the container is completely full?

Do not leave surplus food or organic materials on the ground. Our service schedule is tailored to your output to ensure your container never over-fills, but we understand that that unexpected things happen. Call our customer care team at 855-503-7333 or email CustomerService@DenaliWater.com if you increase your food disposal volume or need to put more than usual in your container.

Can I pour beverages and liquids into the bin?

Yes, you can pour liquid food items like dairy, juices, and soups into the container. However, do not dispose of any non-food or hazardous cleaning chemicals in this specific bin.

The organic materials you place in this bin stay local! We recycle them into valuable resources like compost to nourish regional agriculture and replenish the earth.
