I’ve been bringing our landscape organic waste here for many years. As a Bentonville resident this is a really nice facility to have access to. We also save our glass and large cardboard for deposit at this facility. I probably visit 4 to 6 times per year. While I’ve never needed the mulch they produce I did catch a picture of the mulch production on my last visit.

This is a great place to get compost for a reasonable price. I get the bagged screened compost and it’s awesome. The first time I used it (about 10 years ago) I noticed a big improvement in my trees shrubs and other plants. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. This year Taylor assisted me and he was awesome. Loaded my car quickly and was friendly and helpful.

This is a great place to get compost for a great price. I recently picked up several yards of sifted compost for $20 per yard to to amend the soil in my new lawn installation. The sifted compost is not “finely sifted” but worked just fine for my application.
