Curbside Pick-up
The Chelmsford DPW is pleased to announce a new curbside organics program for food scraps. The curbside service from Black Earth Compost includes weekly or every other week pickup. A 6-month subscription is $14.99/month for every other week pickup.
DPW will provide the compost starter kit, which includes a 13-gallon bin or 4-gallon (apartment option) bin and set of compostable liners that will be delivered by Black Earth. Interested residents can sign up directly through Black Earth at https://blackearthcompost.com/residential-curbside-compost-pickup
Residents that participate in the curbside program are also provided with a voucher for one 40-lb. bag of compost redeemable at places nearby.
Should more than 300 Chelmsford households register, the subscription price will be lowered by 20% for all participants.
