Curbside compost runs from April 3rd through December 8th.

Compost is picked up the same day as regular trash. A separate truck picks up compost. Your compost should be separated from your regular household trash by 4 feet. Mixed compost and trash will not be picked up.


Prepare Your Items

Branches are to be cut down to 4 feet or less and should be no larger than 3 inches in diameter. Branches should be put into small bundles and tied with rope or twine. You may put out up to 10 bundles a week.

You may use compost bags or garbage cans for compost disposal. The limit for compost collection is ten compost bags or five garbage cans, with no bag or can weighing more than 50 pounds. We do not accept compost in cardboard boxes or plastic garbage bags.
