Compost throughout winter
Our Winter Gap Composting Program helps you to continue composting through the cold winter months. Maybe you use Evanston’s yard cart for composting in spring, summer, and fall, or maybe you have your own backyard bin.
It’s one payment for the whole season.
2024 Winter Gap Service:
Week of December 9 - week of March 24*
*unless you let us know that you would like to continue our service.
Evanston’s Yard Cart program ends the week of December 9, but Collective Resource Compost Cooperative keeps working all year round.
