We compost our yard waste and grass clippings. We have done this as long as we have lived in this house, 25 years. Overland Park has a new rule this year that all yard waste must be in paper bags, not plastic bags. Also, you are limited to putting out five bags a week. Even though we mow and mulch our leaves in the fall, we will still have about 75 bags of leaves to do something with. That is way more compost dirt than I know what to do with. Now, I am mixing old leaves and fresh grass to get the garbage company to take five bags a week. I think that the company has to compost the yard waste and cannot put it in the landfill. I am still glad that we compost.
