I never compost my tomato plants or clippings, I make sure those are bagged and taken away. If your out in the country you could probably burn them.

The old hay under the tomato plants I either turn under (rarely do that) or rake up and put out in my backyard woodsy area.

If I am going to put a think layer of compost down in the Fall then I might just lay that over the old straw.
