Backyard Compost Bins Available
This spring, the Hancock County Planning Commission is partnering with the Maine Resource Recovery Association (MRRA) to provide Earth Machine™ at a significantly reduced rate. The Earth Machine is a backyard compost bin measuring approximately 35 inches high and 33 inches wide and is constructed of recycled materials. A 31 page “how to” guide is included with each order. Minimum assembly is required.
The HCPC will make a limited number of Earth Machines available to individuals on a “first come-first served” basis. The HCPC will accept orders until April 29 and bins should arrive mid-June. To order your Earth Machine, please make out a check in the amount of $36.50 for each bin ordered (tax included) to the Maine Resource Recovery Association and send it to the following address:
