City of Austin - Chicken Keeping Rebate Program

Austin Resource Recovery, a City of Austin service, is working to reach Zero Waste by 2040, which means reducing the amount of trash sent to landfills by 90 percent. The Chicken Keeping Rebate Program supports Austin’s Zero Waste goal by educating residents about how to keep food scraps, yard trimmings and food-soiled paper out of the landfill. Most Austinites* can earn a $75 rebate on a chicken coop through the City of Austin’s Home Composting Rebate Program. To qualify, attend a free chicken keeping class, then apply! *Must pay the Clean Community Fee on monthly utility bill
