Trash & Recycling
The town has curbside pick-up of trash every Thursday and curbside pick-up of recyclables every Wednesday. We ask that both are put out by 7:00 AM. The town now has a transfer station for bulky waste and construction debris which is open to residents and property owners. A sticker may be purchased at the Town Office for $5.00. Contractors and commercial users will be charged $40.00 per load (pickup or small trailer) for construction debris, and $20.00 per load for clean wood and scrap metals. A $15.00 refrigerant fee will be charged for anything with Freon in it, and a $6.00 fee will be charged for each tire that is brought to the transfer station.
Transfer Station Hours:
Friday: 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
