Weekday drop sites are open; weekend drop sites open in November
DENVER – Denver’s Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DOTI) is kicking off its annual LeafDrop program, allowing residents an opportunity to drop off their leaves and pumpkins to have them turned into compost, rather than ending up in the landfill. Compost is a beneficial soil amendment used in gardens and landscapes that’s sold at most garden and hardware stores.
Starting today through November 30, the following LeafDrop locations are open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.:
Note that the Cherry Creek Transfer Station is the only site that accepts loose leaves and hitched trailers (6 ft in length or less); otherwise, leaves should be bagged. Residents can download a coupon to receive a free five-pack of compostable paper leaf bags at participating Ace Hardware stores while supplies last. Leaves dropped off in plastic bags must be emptied on site.
Also, we’re just a few weeks away from opening our weekend drop sites! On Saturdays and Sundays from November 2 to November 17, and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Denver residents can drop off their leaves and pumpkins at the following locations:
