Trash/Recycling Container Streetside Placement Reminder

Residents are reminded that it is imperative to keep trash and recycle containers out of the streets on collection days.

Per the Town’s Residential Refuse Collection Program Guidelines:  Residents shall place refuse containers and bulky waste items at a point immediately to the rear of the sidewalk (where one exists), or 3 feet from edge of pavement. Refuse and bulky waste must be placed at curbside by 7:00 a.m. on the day of scheduled collection.

By following these guidelines, you will help us help you by allowing us to plow the roads in a timely and efficient manner. When trash cans are left in the roadway, plow drivers stay clear of them potentially making the roads unsafe and requires our drivers to re-visit their routes later in the storm. This not only adds costs, but prohibits our drivers from assisting in other areas of town.

We thank you for your cooperation.
