Loretto

Loretto residents have the opportunity to participate in the Green Bag Organics Curbside Composting System (formerly Blue Bag Organics) through Republic Services.  GBO, as we like to call it, is an amazingly easy and affordable way to recycle kitchen scraps, discarded leftovers, spoiled produce and even pizza boxes.  In less than two months, this organics waste will be converted into soil-enriching compost that will be sold at local garden centers.

GBO participation fees are included in the Residential Recycling fee of $6.93 that each household pays monthly. If you'd like to opt-in, just call or email City Hall: 763-479-4305 or mschneider@ci.loretto.mn.us.
