Description | Before we throw things into our Yard Trimmings cart it’s important to identify what our local system can accept. Things labeled “Biobased”, “Biodegradable” and “Compostable” aren’t always compatible with your local compost facilities process for breaking down vegetation. Plastics, metals and glass also don’t belong in most Yard Trimmings carts. | ||||
