Yes

A brief description of the composting or mulching program:

A 6 yard container is used for plant removal of annual flowers and yard waste and compost throughout the year. During winter break which occurs late November through December, the pickups are scheduled on an as needed basis.
2 to 3 40 yard roll-off containers are used from the end of September to early November to accommodate higher volumes of leaves and yard waste during that period.

We also maintain (2) 8 yard compost containers for Kitchen and dining waste from Centennial Halls and (1) 8 year container for Kitchen and dining waste from Nelson Hall.
