Solid Waste and Recycling
Composting bins for sale!
It seems like only yesterday we were racking up those fall leaves. And before you know it spring will be here bringing bright green hills and brilliant wild flowers. But now is the time to get prepared for spring. One of the exciting ways to prepare is to start a compost pile. Composting your yard trimmings and food scraps is easy, great for your yard and garden, kind to our environment and good for you too! Save money, save water, and conserve natural resources.
The City of Oakley is selling backyard composting bins at a discounted price for Oakley residents. The SoilSaver compost bin is constructed with 75% post-consumer recycled content and comes with a 25 year warranty. It is easy to use, and normally retails for $129 plus tax & shipping. The bin is priced at $66 (wholesale cost). If you are interested or would like some more information please e-mail Josh McMurray, Senior Planner, at mcmurray@ci.oakley.ca.us
