Our composting program allows green waste to be recycled into mulch. It becomes a great soil amendment to mix in with your soil before landscaping or planting a garden. We accept chippable, non-toxic green waste at the Washington County Landfill for our compost pile. Other yard waste is accepted, but not as part of our composting program.
No semi-truck loads of compost will be sold until further notice. Please bring smaller vehicles for compost purchases. Thank you.
Traditional compost materials include grass clippings, leaves, and small tree branches.
Please don’t mix in palm fronds or oleanders because they do not compost well. Additionally, avoid any viney plants, large branches, and any animal products.
You can buy compost from the landfill, subject to availability. Compost is $42.03/ton and woodchips are $26.27/ton.
The money collected from your recycling is given 100% back to the cities and towns that make up Washington County for community enhancement projects.
