Household trash is picked up curbside on Tuesdays by Schoodic Curbside Recycling. Each bag must have a trash sticker prominently displayed. Bags cannot weigh more than 40 pounds and needs to be put curbside by 7:00 a.m. Please refrain from putting trash out the night before as birds can easily tear a trash bag apart and Schoodic Curbside Recycling will not pick up scattered debris. Multiple bags can be placed in a trash container, but each bag must have a sticker.
Trash Stickers must be purchased by all residents – the town no longer provides any free stickers. Stickers are sold at Town Hall in any number (1 -100) for $1.50 each.
For the convenience of our residents, Hancock Grocery has agreed to sell trash stickers. They will offer them only in full sheets of 5 stickers and will cost $7.75 per sheet. Single stickers are NOT available at Hancock Grocery and only cash is accepted for trash stickers.
Our trash is taken to PERC and burned to generate electricity.
