One big advantage to composting is that little bits of food clinging to the container are a feature, not a bug.

So it saves a lot of water and (if hot water is needed) energy over washing and recycling paper or (with PLA and such) plastic.

The composting facilities I'm aware of are for-profit, but they typically get paid at both ends of the business (http://cedar-grove.com/about-us/faq/).
