How compost delivery works

  • A dump truck tips the load in one pile. One truck carries about 18 yd³.
  • Dumped from the street or driveway. A backyard works if the entrance is wide enough. Off the public road, you take responsibility for any damage.
  • Best if someone is there to show the driver the spot. Not required: ask for a photo of the drop.
  • Delivery in 2–3 business days, on a weekday you choose.
