WATCH: Northbrook is Going ALL-IN on Composting!

Northbrook News Posted on April 30, 2025

The Village, through the franchise agreement with LRS, has launched its new All-In Composting Program that provides the opportunity for every LRS-serviced home to have a 35-gallon yellow-lidded compost cart - at no additional cost – to divert compostable material from landfills and turn it into nutrient-rich compost that enhances soil health. You’ll be able to combine yard waste and food scraps into a single bin for regular collection on Wednesdays, all year long.

🍌 The Countertop Method – Keep it handy and empty it often
❄️ The Freezer Method – Chill your scraps, skip the mess
