Comal County Recycling Center to host free mulch giveaways in September

Comal County residents can collect free mulch during two upcoming events in September from the Comal County Recycling Center.

The details

The Recycling Center, located at 281 Resource Drive in New Braunfels, expanded its brush and mulch area by building a new access road. This resulted in 17,000 cubic yards of aged mulch, according to an Aug. 28 news release from the county.

To distribute this inventory, the center is hosting two giveaway events where staff will assist with loading:

• Sept. 14, 8 a.m.-noon
• Sept. 21, 8 a.m.-noon

One more thing

In addition to the events, the center has reopened its mulch yard, offering over 40,000 cubic yards of fresh mulch, according to the release.

Residents can pick it up during regular hours: Tuesday through Friday from 7 a.m.-3 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m.-noon.
