Solid Waste Collection

Household Trash

Curbside collection for household waste is provided every Friday by J & J Trash Service, Inc. The Town asks that your waste receptacles are placed at the curb by 5:00 AM on each Friday. Senior citizens, disabled residents, and others in need of accommodations for regular collection services should inquire with J & J Trash Service, Inc for assistance. Household waste is defined as anything that would be found in your kitchen or bathroom trash can. Discarded furniture, large toys, and other over-sized items are all considered bulk items.

Recycling is mandatory for all Town residents per Town Code, and recyclable items that are left for solid waste collection will not be collected.
