How to Dispose of Yard Waste in Denver, CO
Denver offers weekly compost collection for enrolled customers and seasonal LeafDrop sites (e.g., Cherry Creek Recycling Drop-off area guidance). Large Item Pickup may allow limited bundled branches within rules, but unbundled branches/stumps/dirt/sod are not accepted on LIP. Prefer compost/LeafDrop pathways for yard materials.
