Yardwaste Drop Off In Kansas City.

Want to see a neat trick? Try recycling your yard waste.

Recycling yard waste, like leaves and grass clippings, keeps valuable resources out of the landfill and puts them back to work creating healthy soil. We use the yard waste we collect to make Nature Wise Compost, which is then used by home gardeners, farmers, landscapers, cities, and companies. Compost is a natural plant food and soil component that absorbs excess rainwater, supports healthy plant roots, traps pollutants, and makes healthy soil.

FOR KCMO RESIDENTS AT OUR NORTHLAND, KANSAS CITY, AND SOUTH KANSAS CITY LOCATIONS ONLY.
If you are not a KCMO resident you are still welcome to use the Main Office, Northland, or KCKS locations for a small fee. The south KC and KC Chouteau location are only open on Saturdays for KCMO Free Yard waste drop off. They are no longer open during the week and do not accept contractors.
