ANYONE RECEIVING FREE MULCH OR UNLOADING YARD WASTE FROM A PERSONAL VEHICLE SHOULD READ THIS FIRST
Heavy equipment is used in the yard waste area to load mulch and move yard debris. YOU ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK and by doing so release Fayette County and all its representatives from all claims of damage, injury, and consequences resulting from loading mulch into or unloading yard waste from a personal vehicle in the yard waste area.
FREE MULCH
Free mulch is available anytime for self-loading at both the Transfer Station and McDonough Road across from McCurry Park. Mulch is loaded for free on Saturdays at the Transfer Station.
