The City of Paducah's compost facility at 1560 North 8th Street is accepting brush and tree limbs from the public. 
 
Paducah residents can drop off brush and tree limbs at no charge, but must show a valid driver’s license to verify city residency.
 
There is a fee to drop off brush and limbs for commercial contractors and for non-Paducah residents. The fee is based on the size of the truck or trailer hauling the items, ranging from $5 for a pick-up truck or small trailer load to $50 for a truck with at least 20 cubic yards of material. The disposal fee for large trailers and single axle dump trucks is $10. Double and triple axle dump trucks are charged a fee of $25 per disposal.

All commercial contractors are required to have a current occupational business license from the city. Contact the Paducah Finance Department at 270-444-8513 for more information about the business license.
 
The facility has wood chips and compost available for purchase by the bucket load. An approximately two yard bucket load of wood chips is $10, while the compost costs $20. 
 
The compost facility is open Monday through Saturday from 7 am until 3 pm, and is closed on Sunday. For more information, contact the Engineering-Public Works Department at 270-444-8511.
