While I am all for composting, Dirt Wain is not what they appear to be. It has been months now, that we are not able to let our dogs out into our 6 foot privacy fenced in yard, without supervision. We are struggling with birds dropping the compost scraps into our yard. There are SWARMS of birds uncovering the piles. We have found everything from grapes to onions to garlic, which are all highly toxic for dogs to consume. We were in contact with management to handle this issue but unfortunately nothing has been resolved and now we are not able to get ahold of management at all. We have spoken to others in the neighborhood, and they too have run into issues around this with no solution. We have tried our own deterrents, but it does not help. We have filed a complaint with the Board of Health here in Allen County. Do what you want with this information, but I am just trying to let others know about our bad experience with this establishment. read more

I'm very happy to have a business that will compost our scraps. Are used to do it, but I don't really have anywhere to use the compost in my yard anymore. We have been missed multiple times and had to call to get our scraps picked up. They charge a delivery fee for plastic liners, which is quite ridiculous, as they are delivering them when they pick up the food scraps and it costs them absolutely no extra time. Other than that, we are glad they are here. read more

Compost!!! It's so wonderful to be able to compost all our food waste. We moved from the Bay Area where composting was mandated and had become a normal part of our everyday. We were so happy to find a great composting service here in Fort Wayne and continue on our composting journey. Anytime we have questions or concerns, we are able to get quick, clear answers. We were able to compost our Christmas tree easily. Our garden loves the soil we've gotten from DirtWain. We have no complaints and feel lucky to have found this service. Seeing your food scraps become nutrient dense soil and not methane really feels good. read more
