A-Z Recycling Guide -- Yard Waste

Eco-Cycle advocates "grasscycling," or letting grass clippings decompose into the lawn. This saves time, energy and water, and reduces the need for fertilizers and pesticides. Seasonal yard waste recycling programs are operated by many towns and cities throughout Boulder County. Check with them for more information. Seasonal leaf collections are held each fall throughout Boulder and Broomfield Counties.
