Lots of leaves to rake? Fall drop-off sites available for all of your needs.

Leaf drop-off program helps divert leaf waste from landfills, open Saturdays in November

As the seasons change, so do your yardwork needs. As you plan for fall clean up, you can help keep leaves out of the landfill by using free drop-off sites in Douglas County, including the Slash-Mulch site through Oct. 26 and a free Fall Leaf Collection site, open Saturdays in November through Nov. 16.

Leaves, slash, and green yard waste like grass clippings will still be accepted at the County’s slash-mulch site from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays through Oct. 26. Then, only leaves will be accepted from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 2, Nov. 9, and Nov. 16. The site is located at 1400 Caprice Drive in Castle Rock.

Here are a few tips for a smooth drop-off:

Yard waste and leaves are professionally composted. Slash is turned into free mulch for resident pickup. Thank you for utilizing this service to keep leaves and other yard waste out of landfills and from blocking storm drains. Leaves entering the water system can bring excess nutrients that can be better used as compost.
