2023 WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICE UPDATES

END OF MARCH- EARLY APRIL WE WILL BE STARTING A NEW AUTOMATED WASTE COLLECTION

WITH WASTE MANGEMENT

Each residential address will receive two totes – one for solid waste and one for recycling. Both totes are 96 gallons. These are much sturdier than garbage cans bought at stores. Each tote has an RFID chip built in that is tied to the address it belongs to. This allows Waste Management to track overages, broken totes, or other miscellaneous problems.

Recycling – Changing from once a week to every other week. 

Waste Management will be notifying each resident of the delivery date.

Flyers will be sent with information in late February.  The website will keep updating any changes  

‍

Recycling Guide:

• Paper, plastic, metal and cans are recyclable materials. Please call the Refuse Clerk if you need recycling bins or have questions about recycling.
• The Town now allows one (1) large bulk item to be put out per week all year long. This would include a refrigerator, stove, washer, etc.
• All acceptable solid waste shall be placed within 5 ft. of the street edge or curb by 6:30am on the street adjoining the premises and in no more than 4 water tight 30 gal. containers with handles or 4 water tight plastic bags. Private road residents must bring their waste to the road adjacent to their property.

Hazardous Materials:

Please call the Erie County Household Hazardous Waste hotline number at (716) 858-6800 for current dates and locations of the next dropoff point.
