[...] First, I bought compost in bags, but you can go to your local recycling center and get a truckload for about $30.00. Depending on how many garden beds you have, this could really save you. Here are some compost sources in Utah. [...]

Do you know what kind of material this compost is derived from? Is it just composted green waste from peoples yards? If so do you have to worry about fertilizers and other toxins? The cost saving is awesome my only hesitation is just that I don’t know what went into the mix.

I believe it is greenwaste from people’s yards, combined with human brown waste. It probably does run the risk of having fertilizers and stuff in it, but I know they have to bake it to a certain temp to make sure it’s safe. But, I’m not sure what that does to any chemicals. I would call them.

I purchased my compost from South Utah Valley Solid Waste District in Provo, UT. They also have a yard in Spanish Fork. The regular stuff is $20.00 and their “black gold” (w/ bio-waste) added is $25.00 per cubic yd.
Here is a link to their website. http://suvswd.org/compost.html
