What it won't take

Household garbage, bottles and cans go out at the curb on your weekly collection day, not to the station. Rubble, stone, concrete, asphalt, dirt and rocks aren't accepted, and grass clippings should be composted or mulched on the lawn. Household hazardous waste is collected at sites the town sets up from spring through fall; call Public Works or watch the local paper for dates.
