Composters and Rain Barrels
Backyard Composters
Backyard composting is a simple and effective way to manage food waste at home. Managing food and organic waste materials in a backyard unit is the most cost-effective method for organic waste materials and you get a great nutrient rich material to use on your lawn and in your garden.
As a rural community, West Grey residents have a close connection to nature and agriculture, and by leveraging our rural values we can make a positive impact on our waste management and preserve the finite capacity of our landfill sites.
Rain Barrels
West Grey Municipality sells rain barrels and diverters! These are available for purchase at the Municipal office, and pickup at the Durham Waste Site during regular hours. The rain barrels are $63 and diverters are $40, payable by cash, cheque or debit. Limited stock available, first come first serve.
For tips and guidance on using your rain barrel assembly, please review the Rain Barrel Instructions.
