Join Our Compost Collection Service

Pak360 supports cafes and restaurants with compost collection for food, coffee grinds and packaging.

In Australia about 250,000 tonnes of food waste is created annually by the hospitality industry. When food waste goes into landfill it contributes to methane gas and global warming, which is why composting is so important. That’s why we offer a convenient compost collection service for busy cafes who are committed to the responsible processing of waste.

You can make a difference

We make it easy to dispose of food waste, coffee grinds, and compostable packaging. By joining our collection service you ensure your food waste is disposed of responsibly and doesn’t end up in landfill.

What happens to your waste?

Once we collect your waste, it is processed to break it down into clean compost. This occurs either aerobically, in a composting vessel (typically using worms), or it is broken down anaerobically, with the energy generated being turned into electricity.
