Vacuum cleaner bags and vacuum cleaner dirt

How to dispose of vacuum cleaner bags and vacuum dirt

Put cleaner bags and vacuum dirt, debris and lint in your black cart as garbage.

Special instructions

Dust and powders must be double bagged and tied closed for dust control before putting in your black cart as garbage.

Why can't vacuum cleaner dirt be composted?

Vacuum cleaner dirt is not compostable in the green cart because it can include non-compostable material that will not breakdown during the composting process and will contaminate the finished compost.
