Loose and bagged leaves collected by the Town are composted into leaf mulch. This mulch can be used as a soil additive, for composting.

This is an important service as composted leaf mulch keeps leaves out of the landfill. Leaves can take up valuable landfill space, and produce harmful greenhouse gasses.

This year, the compost can be picked up on Saturday October 22, from 8am-12pm.  To arrange the pickup, residents must register and follow the guidelines below.

• Location: Glade Road Growing, 2351 Glade Road
• Register for a 30 minute time slot
• Do not arrive more than 10 minutes before your time slot
• Please remain parked in the upper lot until you are directed to the compost zone, where Town staff will load your truck or trailer.
• Limit is two cubic yards per truck or trailer
• Do not block access to the road leading to the compost zone
• Once loaded, please exit promptly
• Notice: The process of loading leaves may cause scratches or dents to your truck or trailer as well as possible suspension damage due to the weight. By participating in this program, you assume the risk inherent with loading leaves in your truck or trailer.
