Yard Waste
Composting with Soil Dynamics — Yes, it gets composted and you get soil & mulch discounts
Here’s what we do with your yard waste. Please keep trash out! :)
Many companies let you mix yard waste in & trash together. That means it’s going to the landfill to put off methane gas for years to come. Instead, we collect yard waste separately and compost it with our affiliate company, Soil Dynamics Composting Farm.
Yard Waste collected April through November
During this time, we’ll collect your yard waste separately and will compost it. During the off-season, you may use your yard waste cart for landfill.
Customers get 20% off our Soil & Mulch
Since you helped create it, enjoy an annual 20% discount on any soil, finished compost, and mulch from our Soil Dynamics affiliate.
Yard Waste Guide
Yard Material Only
Please, no plastic bags or plastic, glass, or metal of any kind.
Don’t Let Grass Get Stuck
A common call we get is about grass sticking to the bottom of the cart after service. A proactive way to get around this is to put cardboard or folded yard waste bags at the bottom of your cart.
