HIGHWAY 7 COMPOST DEPOT HOURS 9 AM TO 6 PM DAILY BEGINNING MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22

    
The City of Saskatoon operates two compost depots that are free for residents of Saskatoon: McOrmond Drive Depot, located just north of 8th Street East on McOrmond Drive; and Highway 7 Depot, located at the corner of Highway 7 and 11th Street West. 

Beginning on Monday, September 22, until the sites close for the season on November 7 (weather permitting), both locations will operate daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.  Previously, extended hours were offered at the Highway 7 depot when daylight hours were longer. 

The depots accept leaves, grass, sod, topsoil, and non-elm branches, stumps and tree trimmings, and even Halloween pumpkins.  Elm tree clippings or wood is not accepted at any time.  

There are a number of other composting tips and services for residents, including compost bin rebates, master composter advice, and a Winter Composting Presentation on October 1 for Saskatoon residents.  For more information, visit saskatoon.ca and look under “C” for Composting.
