May marks the return of our Spring Wood Mulch and Compost Give Back Program. Every Friday in May, the Department of Public Works will haul wood mulch and leaf compost in bulk for Town residents to use around their homes for free.
This give back program is made available as part of our ongoing yard waste collection and recycling program. All tree, leaf and brush debris collected weekly by Perinton highway crews is ground/mulched by Waste Management for reuse. Making this material available for reuse saves landfill space and provides a valuable commodity for residents.
Wood mulch and compost made available through this program are intended for ๐ง๐ผ๐๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ผ๐ป ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ ๐ผ๐ป๐น๐.
