The Monkton Recycling Center will be open from 8-12.
Recycling will be open from 8-12 and trash and food waste drop off will be open from 9-12.
Please bring exact change for Rick, our trash hauler. You can place your money into a container he will provide.
We will be admitting only 3-4 cars at a time into the parking area to allow for social distancing.
If you need help with your recycling please let the recycling attendant know; we will do our best to be of service. Also, there will be some alternative containers to place your recycling in so you do not need to climb the stairs.
