Sepura or Garbage Disposal?


Here’s a simple overview to compare the two.

Garbage Disposal
Septic Friendly
Composts Scraps
Food Enters Pipes
Food Clog Risks
Grinds food
Quiet

Food scraps are filtered into an under-sink compost bin, only liquids flow down your drain.

Sepura sends all food scraps 1/2 the size of a grain of rice and larger into an odor-proof compost bin, only liquids enter your pipes.

Wash all scraps down your sink.

Compost bin fills every 2-4 weeks.

Only liquids drain down pipes.

Uses food separator, no sharp grinding.

No more compost on your counter or always emptying your sink strainer.

Clean & easy composting.

All your food scraps are drained from liquid and sent into a dry, odor-proof compost bin.

No more smelly, leaky trash.

Scraping your food into a trash bin accumulates liquid, odor, and attracts fruit flies.

"I love being able to keep solids from going into our almost 40 year old pipes and being easily able to separate compostable items for our trash. As you may be aware, this is now a requirement in the state of California."

What customers are saying

Loving it for our place.

Sepura is a true blessing for our septic system! We've always been wary of using a garbage disposal, but Sepura provides a safe and efficient alternative. No more worries about clogging our pipes – it's been a smooth experience and we're loving being able to just shove everything into our sink!

Magic separation.

It separates like magic. In fact I dropped a screw in on "accident" and made a whole scene in front of my 6 year old like I'll never get it back. Then told her to push the button. When the screw popped out into the collection center she stood there eyes wide and mouth agape.

Good in my apartment!

My building won't allow garbage disposals due to the clogging risks, but did allow me to install a Sepura unit. It has been great. For now I've been putting my scraps into a communal rooftop garden we have, but I'm looking forward to NYC introducing compost collection in the near future. Much more countertop space now, which is definitely at a premium here, haha. Overall it has been a great addition to my kitchen.
