Tanbark/Leaf Compost Available

Tanbark and leaf compost are available for residents who may wish to order it for delivery from the Township, with orders taken on a first-come, first-served basis starting April 1.  Deliveries will be scheduled to start on April 12.  The delivery charge is $100 for any amount between one and eight cubic yards.  The delivered tanbark or compost will be placed only on the driveway of the property.  Residents who want the delivery service must complete a release agreement and make payment, in advance, to the Township.  The product will be delivered as soon as possible after payment.  

Order forms and details for delivery of tanbark or leaf compost can be found on the Township’s website at: https://www.hampdentownship.us/Maps-Forms/yard%20waste/Leaf%20and%20Tan%20Bark%20Order%20Form.pdf

Tanbark and leaf compost are also available, free of charge, while supplies last, at the Yard Waste Facility at the Public Works Complex, which is accessible from Technology Parkway.  The resident must load the material themselves.  The Township does not provide that service for free or for a fee.  

The facility is open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. the first and third Saturday of every month from April to December, weather permitting and excluding Township-observed holidays.  A resident ID card will be required to access the facility.
