Solid Waste and Recycling

The City of Taunton Rolls On with the Automated Recycle Program and the 95-Gallon Wheeled Recycling Carts! 
                                         

As the City continues automated recycle collection residents should remember -
The city has moved to recycle collection on an every other week basis. Recycle collection is the same day as scheduled trash collection, but recycle collection is now occurring every other week.

Half the City should set out recycling carts on "A week".
Half the City should set out recycling carts for "B week".

Trash collection will continue to be picked up on your scheduled trash day every week, including the weeks your recyclables are not picked up.  Residents should continue to set out trash in the City's orange pay-as-you-throw trash bags.
