Free! Compost Giveaway Coming Up Soon

FREMONT, CA - Some smart gardeners got their gardens in the ground before last week's rain.

If that wasn't you - take heart! There's still a chance to have a productive and beautiful garden this year.

Participants in Fremont's curbside organics program can pick up two free bags of compost on Sunday, April 8 from 8 a.m. to noon at the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station located at 41149 Boyce Rd., while supplies last. The event will be held rain or shine.

Residents must bring their most current Republic Services garbage bill to show their household’s participation in the curbside organics program. Residents will be directed to the loading area where crews will place bags of compost into vehicles. Residents may pick up compost on behalf of a neighbor or family member who is unable to attend by bringing their respective Republic Services bill.

The Compost Giveaway event is brought to you by the City of Fremont, in partnership with Republic Services and the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station. For more information, please contact Republic Services at 510-657-3500.
