How to compost cereal and grains

Put leftover cereals and grains in your green cart for composting.

This includes:

  • All types and brands of breakfast cereals
  • Oatmeal and porridge
  • Quick oats and steel cut oats
  • Chia seeds
  • Hemp hearts
  • Granola
  • Granola bars and protein bars
  • Breakfast bars

Special instructions

  • Use newspaper, flyers and used paper towels to soak up any excess liquid.

Tip: Don’t flush milk down your toilet, sink or drain. Over time, the fats found in milk build up, sticking to the inner walls of sewer pipes, restricting flow, causing messy, inconvenient and expensive damage to household pipes and leading to sewer back-ups.
