Per the 5pm (2/27/2026) all-call from the Department of Public Works:
"Good evening Franklin, this is Brutus Cantoreggi, your Public Works Director. I have important information regarding trash and recycling pickup. Working with the Town Administrator, the town council, resident ideas, and Waste Management this is the plan going forward. We will continue with the plan for tomorrow, Saturday, to pick up Thursday trash and recycling.
Next week, starting Monday, we will resume the regularly scheduled trash and recycling pickup plan. Monday will be on Monday, Tuesday on Tuesday, etc. There will be a dumpster available for those who really have a trash surplus issue. Just go to the recycling center on Beaver St. for instructions. Once again we are just resuming normal trash and recycling pickup next week.
Have a great weekend and enjoy the 40-degree days coming our way!"
