Lawrenceville will be offering free mulch to both city and county residents as the fall season approaches and landscaping projects are underway. After the recent tropical storm that swept through the county, Lawrenceville crews have been engaged in daily cleanup efforts to remove tree limbs and storm debris.
“As a city, we strongly support sustainable efforts and we are thrilled to provide the community with free mulch as a result of the overall cleanup efforts,” said City Manager, Chuck Warbington. “Mulching is a low-maintenance practice and serves as an important aspect of sustainable gardening.”
Residents can pick-up mulch between 1:15 and 3:30 p.m. every Wednesday and between 8 a.m. and noon on Saturdays during the month of October only at 430 Paper Mill Road in Lawrenceville. Although guests are welcome to self-load, a city representative will be on-site to operate the loader equipment for those who require assistance. City officials advise that arriving with a truck or trailer will ensure that the loading process is fast and efficient.
