Recycling

Recyclables are picked up curbside on Mondays. NH law mandates recycling. The special bags purchased from the Town are NOT needed for recyclables. Blue heavy-duty plastic bins are sold at Town Hall for this purpose.

Accepted for recycling

Co-mingle: These go in blue box all mixed together. No broken glass.

Glass jars, tin or aluminum cans, plastic bottles, #1 and #2 plastic, soap containers, laundry detergent bottles or jugs, cardboard milk or juice containers. No need to remove caps or wash.

Paper and Cardboard — anything that tears—newspaper, magazines, cereal boxes, 6 pack containers, cardboard, junk mail.

Cardboard cartons must be broken down and flattened.

For Animal Problems

Try sprinkling baby powder on your bags.  It’s environmentally friendly and animals don’t like it.

Trash

We're charged by VOLUME for the dumpster. Whenever an extra pickup is needed, we're charged extra.
