Any yard waste in plastic bags will be left behind. Republic Services will bring the yard waste to the town’s Compost Center.

Curbside collection did not occur for our neighborhood or other streets in our area last week, Nov 29-Dec 3. This is the second missed collection this season, so there has been only 1 week of collection this season in our neighborhood. Republic Services was contacted directly the morning of Dec 3 to notify that a collection had not yet occurred this week in our neighborhood. I hope that the town will secure a collection to pick up all the missed yard waste that has been on the streets for over a week.
