I have old soil in pots that I don’t want anymore. It’s full of roots and weeds, and not of any use to me anymore. How should I dispose of this soil? edit sorry for the weird photo size. i will do better next time.

    A few pots worth of roots and weeds and some dirt is fine in the green bin

    They just don’t want bins full of dirt and rocks

        I reckon it has to do with the weight that the workers have to pick up (usually no more than 50 lbs). If they err on the side of none, then people will likely try to put a little in at a time. Then they won’t care. I imagine if they say a little is okay, then people will fill the bins/bags with soil. I can hear it now, “It’s just a little!”
