There's a limit of 15 bags per week that the county will pickup.
SO right now there are 57 available.
There will only be 42 left after Thursday- ACT FAST SUPPLIES ARE RUNNING OUT 3/6/2012 12:13:05 PM |

So essentially you want people to pay you for doing you a favor by taking away your trash? 3/6/2012 12:14:33 PM |
taylor All American 2210 Posts user info edit post |
No, they will go away eventually. It's an opportunity to get some mulch on the cheap...
I'm open to offers 3/6/2012 12:21:26 PM |

although I commend your capitalistic spirit, leaves do not make great mulch and even if it did, you could get it for free just about anywhere. 3/6/2012 12:37:48 PM |

Who in the hell uses leaves as mulch? Are you really this stupid? 3/6/2012 12:38:19 PM |
taylor All American 2210 Posts user info edit post |
But...
These are in bags.
Google says leaves make good mulch: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1082/is_v29/ai_3956395/
And half these leaves have already been composting for 2+ years- goood stuff.

Leaves do in fact make good mulch and composting material. But you have to shred it first. I could maybe see paying for a bag of shredded leaves, but not for someone's unprocessed yard waste. I get plenty of that in my own yard every autumn.3/6/2012 12:57:29 PM |

To be clear, I think he means compost and not mulch.
But yeah, trying to charge for your leaf waste is silly. Just give it away if you can. You get it gone quicker and they get free compost material. 3/6/2012 1:03:05 PM |

Whole leaves will break down as well, it just takes a little longer- and half these bags have been composting 2 seasons (the bottom layer was almost 60% dirt at this point). 3/6/2012 1:04:05 PM |

^ Doesn't matter. I can get that sort of stuff from the City of Raleigh for free. 3/6/2012 1:05:01 PM |
taylor All American 2210 Posts user info edit post |
And if you wait 4 weeks, you'll get mine from the City of Raleigh for free-
For those too impatient to wait- $1 bagged leafs
Easy to transport- use a car! They're in nice Lowe's leaf bags:

So you are trying to profit off of being lazy and not raking your yard for 2+ years? This is after you were too lazy to rake them yourself and you payed somebody else to do it? Go microwave yourself another burrito sit in front of your tv and continue to be a lazy fatass. 3/6/2012 3:55:50 PM |

So put 15 out front, then 15 in front of your neighbors house, then down the street, etc.3/6/2012 4:41:57 PM |

Or load them into your truck and bring them to the collection center. That might be too much effort though lol. 3/6/2012 6:37:01 PM |

He is too lazy to rake the leaves himself and from the looks of things would prob get out of breath if he had to haul 15 bags in front of the neighbors house, so I highly doubt he is willing to put any effort into anything other than video games and microwave meals.3/7/2012 8:21:30 AM |

I raked the leaves last year, that's why they were already decomposed- was going to till them into the garden, but I don't get enough sunlight because of the sources of the damn leaves.
I paid someone to bag the leaves so I could go get work done (get paid) while the leaves were taken care of.
Although my couch is nice- I don't spend a lot of time there.
I am a fatass- just not a lazy one. kthxbye
