Purchase Your 2010 Premium Compost It! Sticker Now
Compost It! Premium Service is available to residents in Clive, Des Moines, Johnston, Norwalk, Pleasant Hill, Urbandale, West Des Moines and Windsor Heights. This program allows residents to use a convenient, wheeled container to dispose of yard waste at the curb.
New customers pay an initial fee for the yard waste cart ($100.00 per season plus a one time $25.00 set up fee.), and then annually purchase a renewal sticker to attach to the container. This sticker price covers the cost of the hauler picking up the yard waste on your regular garbage collection day for the 2010 Compost It! season.
New customers should contact Urbandale Public Works at (515) 278-3950 or by email. Current customers can renew their Premium Service sticker online.
The Compost It! Premium Service containers are for yard waste only. This includes grass clippings, leaves, small branches, yard and garden trimmings, and brush. Containers are placed at the curb by 6:30 a.m.. on your regular collection day. Please place 4 feet away from your garbage and recycle containers. If you have excess yard waste, it can be put in standard Compost It! bags or as stickered bundles and placed with the wheeled yard waste container at the curb.
Compost It! season starts on March 29, 2010. Please contact Metro Waste Authority at
(515) 244-0021 or Public Works at (515) 278-3950 to learn more about this service.
