Compost as an additional recyclable

Our project has company-wide recycling programs set up which collect batteries, mercury containing lamps AND electronic waste, however the collection boxes are not out in the open as the collection for paper/ plastic etc are for safety and health reasons. These items can be brought to a designated collection room in the facility where the items are then collected and stored safely. Is this acceptable? Would another alternative approach be acceptable if there were scheduled days of collection for these items (every first Friday) etc? In addition, could compost be submitted as an alternative compliance and potentially help earn the credit? Thank You!
