Paducah residents, it's time to get rid of the brush

PADUCAH – The City of Paducah Compost Facility located at 1560 North 8th Street now is accepting brush, leaves, and yard debris from Paducah residents.  There is no charge for this service; however, a photo identification with the current city address is required.  At this time, the facility is NOT accepting brush, leaves, or yard debris from commercial contractors or non-city residents. 
 
The Compost Facility which also sells compost by the bucket load is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m.
 
The Compost Facility has Premium Compost for $20 per two-yard bucket load.  Wood chip compost, which is not as homogeneous as the premium compost, is $5 per bucket load.  An approximately two-yard bucket load fills the back of most pick-up trucks.  Until supplies diminish, the Compost Facility also is selling raw wood chips for $10 per bucket load. 
  
For the safety of the employees and public due to the COVID-19 situation, customers must adhere to the following guidelines:

• Remain in vehicle at all times.
• Provide on a piece of paper your name and address to be dropped in a bin upon entering the compost yard.
• Provide exact amount for purchase.  Cash or check only (make checks out to the City of Paducah).  No change will be provided.
• Receipts provided by request only.
