You can still keep pumpkins out of the landfill by placing them in your curbside compostable waste container along with your food and yard waste. When setting your pumpkin in your compostable waste container, remember the following: • remove all candles; • remove any decorations, such as any plastics or metal; and • place in your re-usable compostable waste container, not into a Kraft paper bag. Pumpkins can also be taken to the Net Zero Waste Abbotsford Composting Facility and dropped off with a $1 donation to the food bank, located at 5050 Gladwin Road.
