Greene Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, 1145 Garver Lane Chambersburg, PA 17202

Composting Facility

For those new to our composting facility, you must first obtain a Greene Card in order to purchase mulch and/or compost. We have installed a vending machine at the composting facility (located in the garage). There is also a vending machine in the Greene Township office lobby.  The machine accepts cash and all major credit cards. The machine will dispense a Greene Card that residents can then give to the composting facility staff, who will load their mulch as usual. Leaf and brush drop off are free of charge.

December 21st will be the last Saturday the composting facility will be open until the spring.

Winter hours will then begin.

 

The composting facility schedule will continue throughout the year except on holidays, holiday weekends, or special events.  If the compost facility will be closed, signs will be posted at the gates – closings will also be posted on our website.  The composting facility accepts most types of yard waste except grass clippings.  Brush should be no longer than 8 feet in length and no bigger than 6 inches in diameter.  At various times during the year, after completing the composting process, leaf compost and bark mulch are available for pick-up.  Material is on a first come first served basis.  You may stop by the facility on Mickey Inn Road during regular hours to check on availability.  All material generated by the composting facility is available by purchasing a Greene Card at a cost of $10.00 per large bucket scoop. One bucket scoop is approximately 2 cubic yards. No dump truck loads permitted.
