In 2024, over 20,000 residents collected more than 3,300 tonnes of free high-quality compost.
Available each Spring, the City offers free compost rich in organic matter. It enriches plant mixes and enhances the growth of turf, ornamental plants, vegetables and fruit trees.
City of Edmonton Compost is made from yard waste dropped off at Eco Stations by residents and collected as part of the residential curbside collections program. This material is composted at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre.
