Environmental Services - Grasscycling

IT’S EASY! Grasscycling offers you a totally natural way to help our environment and save time and money in the process. Here’s how.

	THE PROBLEM:
	Landfill space is being depleted rapidly. Each year, Americans send 150 million tons of solid waste to landfills. Total yard waste makes up 20.1 percent of this solid waste. Grass clippings account for more than 10 percent of solid waste.
	TODAY’S SOLUTION: GRASSCYCLING
	Grasscycling is the process of naturally recycling grass clippings by leaving them on the lawn while mowing. Grasscycling is a responsible environmental practice. Grasscycling is a program designed by The Professional Lawn Care Association of America to help ease the landfill problem.
	WHY GRASSCYCLING?
	It’s a cost effective practice: Unlike recycling programs for paper, glass and plastic, Grasscycling can be undertaken by each homeowner on his own turf - with no added costs - any many savings. Everybody wins: Homeowners wins with a better looking lawn, maintained in less time, effort and cost. The environment wins because nutrients are returned to the earth in a natural process.
