Bentonville, AR…The City of Bentonville’s Compost Facility is pleased to announce another compost and mulch giveaway. The giveaway will begin on Tuesday April 5th, 2016 and will continue, while the supply lasts, or until April 30th, 2016. Medium grade/ unscreened compost and wood mulch will be available during normal Compost Facility hours. The Facility is located at 2000 NW “A” Street and open Tuesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. 

A skid-steer loader and operator will be on site, available to load pick-ups and trailers. A wheel loader and operator will be available to load larger vehicles.
