During the fall, we will pick up over 15,000 cubic yards of leaves; that is over 1,000 of our trucks full of leaves or the equivalent of a football field covered with 5 feet of leaves. That is a lot of leaves but it is all recycled and composted into garden mulch for reuse. Some have asked if we do this ourselves, we do not. We instead utilize several existing composting businesses in the area as this is the most cost effective method and they are better set up to do this, as it is their core business.
