New Disposal Law in Effect This FallBeginning January 1, 2010, residents in the Twin Cities area will be required to put their organic waste out for pickup in compostable bags - either paper bags or compostable plastic bags. This will affect residents in the following counties: Anoka, Carver, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington.
What Peterson is Doing in Response 
We will do our best to keep your disposal prices low. In the past, we have offered a $3/bag disposal service to our lawn customers during the fall clean up season. What we know about the compostable bags so far is this : They are smaller than the 55gal. bags we traditionally use and they cost more. We still plan on offering our disposal service to you, and hopefully we can help you save a little money by purchasing our compostable bags in bulk. Right now we are investigating our options and will be mailing disposal pricing information with our Fall Clean Up Reminders on Oct. 1.
