Compostable packaging

What to do with it

Cups, cutlery and straws labelled compostable only break down in an industrial composting facility, which is not something most of Nigeria has. Treat them as general waste rather than assuming they will disappear, and never mix them into a sack of plastic you plan to sell, as they contaminate the load. Bag them and book a Baanza disposal pickup.

When the app opens you will be able to book a pickup for this, priced before you book.

Prices on Baanza are set by the buyers near you and shown as a range once they publish them. We never invent one.
