A compact and portable chewing gum disposal system for sanitary and responsible disposal of a chewing gum cud. The system has a generally cylindrically-shaped hollow container that has a hollow top member with a circular orifice on a top surface and a lid pivotally attached that fully covers the orifice. The hollow container also has a hollow bottom member that is sized to snuggly slide into and attach to the hollow top member. The hollow container has a fluted disposal wrap stack, consisting of a plurality of fluted disposal wraps, located inside with the circular bottom surface of the fluted disposal wraps facing upward. The top surface and a rim around the orifice retain the fluted disposal wrap stack inside the hollow container when the lid is in a first open position. The fluted disposal wrap stack is compacted by moving the lid into a second closed position.
