Pilot Program: Free Food Dehydrator

Zero Waste Marin is running a pilot program with Mill to make recycling your food scraps easier.

What is Mill?

Mill is a food dehydrating bin that shrinks food scraps by 80% and turns them into nutrient-rich grounds that can be easily emptied into your regular curbside compost bin.

Why we’re piloting Mill

Zero Waste Marin is piloting Mill to determine if food dehydrating bins help Marin residents keep food scraps out of the landfill bin by eliminating the “ick” factor.

Who qualifies?

Up to 125 Marin residents and organizations may receive a free Mill food recycler (retail value of $999), if meeting one of the following criteria:

  • Low-income resident (single- or multi-family housing), or
  • Non-profit organization serving Marin, including public schools

Participants will also be asked to complete surveys about their experience to help Zero Waste Marin understand the effectiveness of the pilot program.
