Grass, Leaves, & Light Garden Residue
Defined: grass clippings, leaves, garden residue and weeds. Does not include tree branches, limbs, twigs or shrubbery.
Composting
Composting is the microbial process that converts plant materials into a rich soil conditioner or mulch as a natural way of recycling. Finished or cured compost is excellent for vegetable gardens and flowerbeds. It aids in moisture retention and adds organic matter to the soil.
All Loads/CoverUp
State & County regulations require drivers of vehicles transporting materials, waste or otherwise, to cover and secure their loads. Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the law. To educate citizens of the law and promote the usage of covered and secured loads, the Brown County Landfill has initiated the Covered Load Appreciation Program.
On an ongoing, but random basis, landfill users with Covered and/or Secured Loads are rewarded with various thank-you gifts: Free coupons & gift certificates from local businesses, trash bags, tarps, & more!
