Whether you’re ready for the season of lawn care or not, it’s time to start preparing your lawn for a green spring. That means getting rid of the springtime lawn waste that’s littering your yard. While raking and bagging isn’t an easy job, it’s even harder to figure out what to do with the leaves and sticks you’ve accumulated. Read on to find out what to do with springtime lawn waste.

What to Do with Springtime Lawn Waste

Ask your local municipality for special lawn waste pickups.

Most municipalities pick up organic waste during the fall and spring. Now that we are nearing the end of fall, you might have missed your opportunity. Just find out when it is by calling the trash service you use. There are also options to drop off your lawn’s refuse at certain local sites where your debris is composted or chipped into mulch.

Rent a wood chipper and repurpose the yard waste.

You can make your own mulch by using it on fallen branches, shrubs, and other wood debris. Wood chippers can be rented by the day. Just use caution when using one.

Compost your lawn waste.

The nutrients that occur from your organic debris breaking down help to improve your soil quality. Composting is also a green alternative to removing your lawn waste via truck. Another bonus to composting is that you can throw certain kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, egg shells, and other organic matter on a compost pile.
