Backyard Composting

With the abundance of leaves available, fall is a great time of year to begin backyard composting. Backyard composting is easy, reduces costs and conserves energy associated with materials collection and processing. You can start a compost pile, make a simple bin from chicken wire, scrap wood or fencing, or purchase a ready-made bin.

The City encourages residents to compost in their backyard. For further information on composting, contact the Public Works Department at 301-474-8004
