The Sanitation Division of Public Works WILL be working on April 18, 2025, Good Friday to provide uninterrupted collection of refuse and recycling. However, the Transfer Station on Watson Boulevard will be CLOSED on Good Friday. The Transfer Station will be open on Saturday, April 19, 2025 from 8:00am to 12:00pm.
Residents are advised that as of September 2, 2024, they must use the newly issued 96- or 64-gallon containers. Only refuse or recycling contained in the new Town issued containers will be collected. Refuse or recycling left loose next to the containers WILL NOT be collected. This includes bags or cardboard. Also, paint, oil or any other liquid should not be placed in your refuse or recycling containers.
Plastic bags cannot be included in your recycling container. This includes the special recycling bags that are currently being sold. The bags get stuck in the sorting equipment at the recycling drop off center causing the entire truck load to be rejected as contaminated. We have been advised by the recycling drop off center not to accept plastic bags of any type from now on.
Yard waste collection will resume on April 7, 2025. Grass, leaves and shrubbery clippings must be contained in brown yard waste bags or loosely in 32-gallon cans. Branches no larger than one inch in diameter and 4 feet in length will be collected if tied in bundles.
