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 provided at Town Hall.

Accepted for recycling (please wash food containers)

• Mixed paper in paper bags or tied in bundles
  (junk mail, telephone books, magazines, newspapers, envelopes, manila folders, cereal boxes, office paper)
• Cardboard MUST be flattened and cut up if large. Intact cardboard boxes will not be taken by the driver.
• Clear, brown, and green glass
• No. 1 plastics, including drink/juice bottles
• aluminum cans
• soft drink/juice/beverage cans, steel/tin cans
• aluminum pie tins and foil
• empty aerosol cans (punctured)
• milk/juice boxes and cartons
• food and beverage containers

Please don’t mix your paper products with glass, metal, or plastics, such as placing the empty bottles or cans in 12-pack or 30-pack containers. It’s difficult to deal with and slows down the process. Please put papers, cardboard and wrappers (cereal boxes & six-pack cartons) together and tied. Large & small boxes must be broken down or will not be picked up.

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.

• Whole empty boxes must not be put into the dumpster — PLEASE!
• Recyclables should not be placed into the dumpster.
• Obviously, flammable or other dangerous materials must NEVER be deposited in the dumpster.
