SoilBuilder Compost Available at Deschutes Recycling


SoilBuilder Compost is now available to help with all your gardening projects. There was such a high demand for our SoilBuilder Compost, that we were unable to keep up with the demand. We had to take the time needed to let our product properly mature so we could guarantee the best quality compost in Central Oregon. And now the SoilBuilder compost is mature and ready to go.

SoilBuilder is perfect for amending soil before planting or sodding, tilling into garden spots, building up mounds for planting and for use as a decorative alternative to bark in all gardening areas.

Compost is a great conditioner for your soil. Compost improves soil structure and increases the soil's water holding capacity. It also provides a fire-resistant ground cover.

Contact Deschutes Recycling at 541.388.1910 to get your SoilBuilder. We deliver and provide compost spreaders for rent.
