Recyclable materials placed in clear or blue transparent bags are picked up biweekly throughout the year. You can place as many bags of recyclable items as you wish at the curb on collection day.
You can view the Town’s 2026 Waste Collection Calendar for specific pick-up dates and the Zone map. Please have your recycling at the curb for waste pick up by 6 a.m. on your designated collection day.
