Why Recycle Leaves and Grass?

Re-use Those grass clippings

Grass clippings and finely chopped leaves add vital nutrients and organic matter to the lawn, thus improving the health of the lawn.

Less landfills

Recycled leaves and grass means less landfill space being taken up with bags of organic material. Fewer bags saves each city money on labor and landfill space.

Nurture your lawn

Grass clippings and finely chopped leaves add vital nutrients and organic matter to the lawn, thus improving the health of the lawn.

Watch your Mowing Height

It isn’t necessary to use a mulching mower; just mow one inch when grass reaches four inches tall. The clipping won’t be noticed and will break down within a week.

Save some Bucks

When you recycle leaves and grass, you help conserve water which can be costly.

Don't over do it

Over-fertilizing does not make a healthier lawn, it just makes more lawn to mow.

A little means more

More and more people are using mulcher mowers. This is a great way to recycle your lawn clippings, by returning nitrogen and other nutrients directly back to your lawn. If you still bag your grass, we recommend, you consider a mulcher mower the next time you buy a lawn mower. In the meantime, recycle your grass clippings, by either spreading it on your vegetable and flower gardens, or mixing it into the compost pile.
