Your trash is picked up at curbside once each week by the contractor, Casella Waste; the collection day depends on where you live. If you don’t know which day, call Public Works at 781-438-0760. All trash must be placed at curbside by 7 a.m. on the pickup day, as the trucks will not return for any trash that was not already out.

Please be careful if you put trash out the night before, since animals may tear open bags or get into trash barrels during the night.
