❗Compost Containers ❗

As a reminder, there are 4 locations in the city for leaves and grass composting ONLY (❌no bags❌).

🍂 Compost Locations🍂

🍂 Public Works- Corner of 5th St E & 8th Ave E (across the street on the west side of old Public Works)
🍂 Western Star Ball Complex - 19th Ave W & 15th St W
🍂 Rickard Elementary School - 14th St E & 2nd Ave E
🍂 Harvest Hills- Prairie Commons between 44th Ave W & Long Branch Ave

❌DO NOT❌

❌Do not throw branches in these bins.
❌Do not throw garbage in these bins.
❌Do not place bags around the bin. Empty your compost bags into containers.

Putting trash and branches in the containers ruins the whole load and defeats the purpose of composting.❗Please do your part by keeping these containers free of improper debris, so we can keep them out as long as weather allows.❗

If you bring leaves to the bins in bags, you can dispose of your bags in the 300-gallon container at the sites. Do Not use this container for miscellaneous trash. It is for the compost site users.

If you have branches, you can dispose of them at the City Landfill (5176 134th Avenue NW) where it costs $20 a ton or a minimum of $8.25. You can also take your compost (leaves and grass) to the landfill free of charge!

OR!

Bundle branches in 3-4 foot sections. These must be bound together and light enough for one person to pick up.

Place your bundles on the boulevard and call sanitation (701.577.6368) to let them know you have branches.
