Yard waste drop-off and free mulch in Arkansas
Many Southern cities and counties call yard waste drop-off a brush site, brush drop-off or convenience center. We list 9 sites in Arkansas (all from official sources); 7 take brush and branches, 3 give away free mulch or wood chips, and 1 offers free compost. 7 of the 9 list a residency or eligibility rule on the source page, so bring ID or a utility bill. Coverage for Arkansas is still thin — many towns and counties run programs we haven't listed yet, so check your city or county public works page too.
By type: 8 yard waste drop-off, 4 compost pickup, 5 mulch / wood chip pickup, 7 brush & branches.
Call ahead. Hours, fees, residency rules and accepted materials change. Call or check the official source page before you go. Every listing links to its source.
