Tipping 101 at A1 Organics

Whether you’re a commercial landscaper, arborist, or a resident with yard debris, the same rules apply at all A1 Organics locations. Here’s what you need to know before visiting. Sorting matters. Sod and soil must be separated since sod takes months to dry before processing. Logs need to stay separate to keep mulch clean. Grass is highly combustible and can ignite when mixed with woody material. If you’re bringing grass clippings, some leaves are fine, but absolutely no branches, logs, or lumber. Mixed loads will be rejected. What’s organic? If it was once alive, like plants, trees, or natural wood, it belongs here. But we don’t accept painted, stained, or treated wood, glass, paper, plastic, cans, concrete, bricks, pavers, tires, railroad ties, edging, or weed barriers. We don’t take plastic bags, but kraft paper bags are allowed as long as they aren’t taped or tied shut. Tape and twine clog our equipment and will be rejected. Navigating our sites Our locations have one entrance and one exit. Watch for signs and follow the posted speed limit of 5 mph to reduce dust and debris. Colorado has a statewide tarping law. All loads must be tarped on the road. Once you’re in line, you can un-tarp so we can inspect your load at the gate. After inspection and payment of the tipping fee, proceed into the yard and follow traffic cones to keep things flowing safely. Heavy equipment always has the right of way. This equipment can help you load materials, but we do not assist with unloading, so come prepared. Gloves, a face covering, eye protection, a battery-powered leaf blower, and an extra set of hands can make unloading much easier. No children or fuzzy friends are allowed outside vehicles at any time. Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited due to extreme fire risk. If caught, you will be asked to leave. Final step, tarp up on the way out. By following these rules, you help speed up the process for everyone, reduce pollution and harmful greenhouse gas emissions for a more resilient Colorado.
