Twigs and small branches can be composted through curbside or drop-off yard waste programs.
QUICK TIPS
- Keep it loose in a container clearly marked “yard waste” or use compostable paper bags. Do not place material in plastic bags.
- Twigs can also be bundled with biodegradable twine or string (no nylon string or rope). Limitations on the size of the branches may apply. Call the facility to confirm.
- No food, pet waste, dirt or rocks, sod, plastic pots, or any other non-organic material is accepted.
WHERE CAN I COMPOST THESE ITEMS?
Most communities provide residential curbside collection of yard waste, and it can be dropped off at several participating local businesses.
