This program will recycle waste from your yard into
wonderful compost that may be purchased at the landfill. By
following the rules below, the landfill will be able to continue
producing high quality mulch and compost. Because we care
about the quality of compost produced, we will be enforcing the
below rules. Violation of these rules may result in removal of
container and fine.
- Do not bag yard waste
- No meat or meat by-products
- No dairy products
- No animal waste
- No plastic or paper bags
- No dirt
- No construction material
- Lid must completely close
- Maximum weight: 300 pounds
Yard waste only:
garbage can not be turned into mulch. Garbage in one container may
contaminate the whole truck load of yard waste recyclables.
Do not bag yard waste:
plastic and paper bags do not break down in the composting process.
They only litter the great compost.
No dirt: dirt is
very heavy. A little dirt left on weeds is okay.
Lid closed: you are
required to have your lid shut all the way for the truck driver to
empty your container.
Maximum weight 300 lbs:
if you are recycling heavy items, please do not fill your container
full. Items like cut up tree trunks may add up to 300 lbs when
your container is only 1/2 full.
