Residents may receive up to 60 gallons of each material per household at NO COST. Compost enriches soil with nutrients, mulch helps retain moisture, and wood chips are ideal for landscaping projects.
Please remember to bring your own containers or bags and a shovel, as containers will not be provided at the event. Proof of Chino Hills residency will be required, and bags are allowed.
This program is part of the City’s effort to divert organic waste from landfills and promote healthy, sustainable yards and gardens.
