TOWN OF SUFFIELD RESIDENTIAL GUIDE TO CURBSIDE WASTE DISPOSAL  

We have listed some helpful tips which will allow the Town to serve you better.

Put your Trash Dump Cart out the night before your collection day or BEFORE 6 A.M. on collection day. The ideal location is the left of your driveway when facing the street. Be sure that the dump cart handle faces your house and the can is within 2 feet of the road edge and 3-4 feet from obstructions, such as fences, lamp posts, mail boxes, trees, cars and recycling carts.

Use your dump cart container for regular solid waste, which consists of non- recyclable normal household trash, garbage or rubbish created by a single family. Residents are limited weekly to one trash cart. The fee for waste disposal is reflected in your real estate tax bill which is determined by the cost of disposing of a ton of trash per household per year. This cost is reflected by the tipping fees imposed on the town at the burn plant for disposal of your trash and the cost that USA Hauling & Recycling charges the Town to pick up and dispose of your trash.

Extra trash left outside your dump cart will not be picked up. If you are throwing away more than one ton of trash a year, curbside users can also purchase a MSW Add-On Sticker for your vehicle for $20.00/ year to bring extra trash and recyclables to the Landfill on any Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday 8 am to 4 pm. 

The use of Plastic bags inside the dump cart is recommended; loose trash can get caught by the wind during dumping which produces litter.
