NEW Composting Program
VIMC is now running a composting pilot program – please help us make it a success!
Please use the compost bins and liners provided to collect your waste and take it away with you when you leave.
Over 50% of waste generated at VIMC is compostable waste. For example: used paper towels, food scraps, coffee grinds and left over food. We are working towards making VIMC a waste-free facility and we need your help. Composting is an important piece of the puzzle because when compostable waste is thrown in the garbage it goes into the landfill and cannot properly break down or biodegrade.
VIMC cannot compost this waste onsite since we live next to plenty of wildlife that would love to get their paws on it! Bears in particular are a concern – to protect them and ourselves, we cannot compost onsite. The compost bin liners provided are biodegradable so you can simply lift them out, tie them shut and take them with you – no need to empty the bags.
Thank you for your help in making VIMC a more sustainable environment!
