Holidays generate a lot of wasted food. Eat leftovers, donate uneaten food, and then bring any remaining food scraps to one of the city’s free drop-off sites to be composted. Learn more at columbus.gov/foodwaste

We are happy to be part of this team effort!

Food for Thought: One in seven of our neighbors struggles to put food on the table. 🍽️ By recycling food waste, we can extend landfill life and support families in need. Small steps like this help build a stronger, healthier community. Find your Food Scrap Drop-Off site at columbus.gov/foodwaste

Just look at those adorable little raccoon paw prints all over the food scraps drop-off bins. 🐾😍

"Columbus city code says litter includes anything from car parts and cigarette butts to leaves, glass, wire and paper. Human and pet waste are also included in the definition."
It's cold dog walk season. Is it legal to leave my dog poop on the sidewalk?
As temps fall, those fall walks with your pooch are getting cold. Can you leave that poop on the sidewalk in Columbus?

There are lots of leaves on the ground or falling. Leave them—or if you must collect them set them out for yard waste collection or bring them to one of the city’s Waste and Reuse Convenience Centers for free. #leaves #yardwork #columbus
