The City of Brooklyn announced on March 27 that service crews will start compost pick-up during the week of April 6. Residents are asked to place compostable items in a separate container from regular rubbish.
This announcement is important for residents who participate in the city’s waste management and recycling programs, as it helps support environmentally friendly practices.
According to the city, mulch produced from collected compost will be made available for residents starting in early May. Additional information can be found by visiting the city’s Compost Page.
The initiative aims to encourage proper disposal and recycling of organic waste while providing a resource—mulch—for local gardens and landscaping needs. The program’s success depends on community participation and adherence to collection guidelines.
Residents seeking more details or updates are encouraged to consult the city’s official Compost Page.
