The Annual Compost Giveaway will be hosted by RecycleSmart from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 6 in Lafayette at Our Savior's Lutheran Church, located at 1035 Carol Ln. Online registration for a 15-minute time-slot is required and the event is open only to residents of Lafayette, Orinda and Moraga or of the RecycleSmart service area. The offer is limited to one resident per household.
To obtain compost, residents should bring rigid 5-gallon buckets, cardboard boxes, or other strong containers that you can lift yourself. No bags or truck beds are allowed. Republic Services will provide staff to shovel compost into your containers. Residents can take up to 50 gallons of compost (10 five-gallon buckets) while supplies last. Although Republic Services will fill the containers, you will be responsible for getting them out of and back into your vehicle.
In addition to rigid containers, residents should bring identification and wear closed-toe shoes.
Appointments may be canceled online by residents if necessary, and can also be rescheduled as availability allows.
