Going to the dump with food waste only every 3 months or so would cause smell/ etc etc problems, especially going into the summer months. Good luck.

I got two of these Bokashi bins about six months ago and they are great for keeping down the food rubbish. I don't waste much but, as you know, cooked food can't go out on the compost heap. These bins will take cooked food scraps, including meat and fish, and will take raw trimmings as well.
The full bin, after stading outdoors for at least two weeks, can be added to the compost bin or heap, or dug into the soil and will rot down (they say) in aobut 8 weeks.
This site might be useful for more info - do a search for 'bokashi' :

So far I've found they work well.
