Grasscycling is easier than you think. It helps the environment by reducing run-of, helps feed your lawn, reduces costs, and saves time and effort. Grasscycling simply means leaving grass clippings on your lawn as you mow. When grasscycling is done properly, the grass clippings are small and quickly break down, releasing valuable nutrients into the lawn. This reduces the need for purchasing commercial fertilizers. Grasscycling also slows run-off from rain and helps prevent soil erosion. Plus, you save time and effort. Grasscycling eliminates the need to fill paper yard trim bags or reusable containers and move them to the curb for recycling collection. This video demonstrates successful grasscycling techniques, explains the benefits of grasscycling, and addresses common myths about grasscycling. Residents, multi-family property managers, business owners and managers, and lawn care service providers can contact the Montgomery County, Maryland, Division of Solid Waste Services for additional information about grasscycling: www.montgomerycountymd.gov/yardtrim; phone 3-1-1 (from out-of-County: 240-777-0311; TTY: 301-251-4850).
