SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2023 3:45 PM

Metro Nashville Waste Services is currently in the process of implementing a food scraps pickup program to 750 households.

This presentation will cover building the application and selection process, rolling out the pilot, and how it relates to Nashville's Zero Waste Master Plan.
