Composting not only helps in managing kitchen waste but can also include unconventional items like paper price tags and teabags, depending on their materials. While standard composting rules exist, they may vary based on the compost bin's structure, outdoor climate, and air exposure. Experimentation is encouraged, as items not typically classified as compostable may still decompose effectively. By thinking outside the box, composters can optimize their waste recycling and discover new sustainable practices to enrich their compost heaps even further.
Price tags on clothing—if made from paper—are compostable and provide a carbon-rich addition to your compost, as they are often too small to recycle curbside.
Teabags consist of various components, with the tea itself being compostable. However, depending on the materials in the bag, some elements may not break down.
