Town Dump Days
So we’re still chopping down trees and every now and then a fence panel is replaced. Until all the trees are chopped we can’t take down the whole fence, however. Our backyard is looking pretty bad with old doors, fence panels and more. We were going to call in a dumpster but we found the perfect solution.
Our township has dump days twice a month. To get a ticket we have to apply at the Department of Public Works. Once we have our ticket we can bring over as many loads as we want. Plus, we can get a brush pass as well as a dump pass so now we can bring all of our trees to be made into mulch or compost.
In the comments the other day, one of the regulars mentioned she gets compost from her township - no doubt they make it from their leaf and brush cleanup days. Well we have that too. So we bring all our trees and I think I’ll throw in some ugly bushes for good measure, and a few weeks later we can come back for compost or mulch - as much as we can carry.
The best part? The only money spent is the gas going back and forth to the dump. Not much since it’s in the same town.
