News & Events

An easy way to help the environment is to recycle. Most trash haulers will provide a recycling bin for a fee. But, if your service will not, or if you don’t want to pay, there is also a recycling center in front of the Martin’s Supermarket at Cobblestone Square on East Bristol Street.

Here are some helpful hints:

NEVER TAKE

• Your recyclables in bags
• Plastic (grocery store type) bags
• Clothing
• Masks, diapers, needles, food, or any other organic products.
• Cords, tarps covers, liners

ALWAYS ACCEPTED

• Cardboard
• Milk jugs
• Paper 
• Cans and tin
• Glass
• Detergent Bottles
• Plastic Bottles

After checking this list if you are still in doubt, IF IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT!

CONFUSING:  When you check the bottom of a container and see a recycling arrow you assume that it is recyclable. IT DOES NOT. ONLY #1, #2 AND #5 PLASTICS ARE RECYCLEABLE.
