Wife and I do exactly that and make lovely compost for our garden.
Have several plants doing it on industrial scale in UK.
Also if it's going to the dump, that's fine - it's turning into compost right there and providing for new plant growth. That's what happened to our landfill up north. Had all kinds of shrubs, weeds, wildflowers, and even trees started growing on it. They ultimately shut the landfill down when it resembled more of a hill than a landfill, and then they installed dozens of solar panels and hooked them up to the municipal buildings.
