 Leaf Drop 2009 Minimize
Keeping your leaves off the street and turning them into compost!
 
Rake, Reuse & Recycle
  • Clean up your leaves
  • Keep the streets clean
  • Reduce greenhouse gases
  • Create valuable compost
If you can't compost or mulch all your leaves in your yard or garden, bring them to the closest Denver LeafDrop site and we'll compost them.
 
Brown Bag Them & Go! Save your plastic trash bags and our time by bringing your leaves in paper yard debris bags. Unlike plastic bags, brown paper bags can be composted with your leaves. Many hardware, home improvement and department stores sell paper yard debris bags. Or even better, bring your leaves in reusable containers or tarps that we can empty and give back to you.
 
Treat your Halloween Jack-O-Latern to a second chance and compost them with Denver LeafDrop!
 
Close the Loop! Reclaim your leaves next spring in the form of rich compost at the 2010 Treecycle Mulch Giveaway & LeafDrop Compost Sale. Call 720-865-6810 after April 1st for details.
