Contactless Drop-off :
Residents may place their E-Waste or paper to be shredded shredding in their trunks for the on-site staff to collect and recycle. For paper, we suggest having them labeled, and if possible removing any personal items. Our vendor can collect the items from your trunk to recycle.
Park & Drop-off (Shred):
Residents may park in the designated areas, and walk their E-Waste or paper to be shredded to the areas designated for collection and recycling.

Residents may park in the designated area behind the 2nd parking lot to retrieve the compost. The Town will provide shovels and bags while supplies last. We encourage you to bring additional bags, gloves, and extra shovels. Please note that the compost collection is done entirely by the resident.
