DYPER™ SF (formerly EarthBaby) was started by two Bay Area dads in 2008. After searching for a convenient and environmentally-friendly alternative to disposable diapers, they found that single-use compostable diapers were available, but no service existed to actually compost them. They learned that unless these diapers were composted by a licensed commercial compost facility, they would still end up in the landfill, where they would remain for 500+ years.

Disposable diapers constitute the 3rd largest contributor (by volume) to US landfill sites today.* DYPER™ SF addresses this problem through their compostable diaper service, REDYPER™ San Francisco. This service closes the loop, ensuring that diapers stay out of the landfill.
