Gables is proud to be part of the UNH
composting program!
The Gables compost bin is a bright yellow bucket and is located next to the North Tower Dumpster. All leftover food scraps that do not contain meat
or dairy can be placed in the compost!
It’s easy, and saves nutrient-rich food from ending up in a landfill.
Here are some tips about what is/isn’t compostable, and how to make composting manageable for you
DO YOUR PART...
Compostable::
veggie & fruit scraps Egg shells, crushed Coffee grounds &
filters Tea leaves & tea
bags Hay Grains, rice, flour,
wheat products Flowers & plant

shredded paper Non-meat, non-dairy

Meat, Fish, Dairy (these items take a LONG time to compost and they’re smelly!)
