City Green Cart Compost Giveaway

The Green Cart Compost Giveaway is here! The City of Calgary couldn’t do it in 2020, when COVID-19 was new, but they are ready now.

The weather has been warming up as April brings an early spring and you may be looking for some extra organic matter to enhance the well-being and nutrition of your lawns, flower beds, or vegetable gardens.

Compost will be available for pickup, by online appointment only, from May 10 to June 26 at Shepard (South) and Spyhill (North) landfills during operating hours.

Appointments are Required

Households may take up to 100 litres of compost per household for the 2021 year. The giveaway will run Mondays-Saturdays. Citizen of Calgary who have booked an appointment will be directed to the Compost Pad. There will be 20 appointments per hour from 8:00-16:00, to give you an idea of the traffic flow.

All details, including how to book an appointment and how to use compost, are on The City of Calgary Waste & Recycling website.
