Break it Down is a triple-bottom line social enterprise which works to conserve natural resources by providing a personal and tailored composting and recycling service for businesses while seeking to educate the community (and especially youth) about responsible waste management.

Break it Down considers increased composting and recycling as important environmental goals for Austin. What separates us from most waste businesses, however, is that our composting program is directly connected to and funds our educational and community goals. Seen in this light, our hauling system and composting sites are not only a waste management solution but also a tool for social change, a strategic resource to help improve social outcomes.

So check out the rest of our website, including our business services and community projects such as composting workshops, school composting plans, and educational opportunities. Post any thoughts or comments you may have on the ‘News’ page. Or contact us directly on the ‘Community Projects’ or ‘For Businesses’ pages.

Thanks!

Jeff Paine, Director
