REGULAR TRASH (GARBAGE) PICKUP
From September through the end of May, regular trash is picked up biweekly (every other week) on Friday, by R.C. Rogers & Sons of West Bath. During June, July and August, trash is picked up every week. Trash should be put out for pick up by 7 AM at the end of your driveway.

RECYCLING
Arrowsic has a curbside recycling program, handled by R.C. Rogers. With the exception of mixed and high-grade paper (see Guidelines, click below), all items that are currently recyclable are picked up at curbside on a year-round biweekly schedule, including now (1) glass of any color can now be recycled, (2) plastics numbered 1-7, and (3) aluminum. Please bear in mind that some plastic is still not recyclable, including anything that held hazardous material (e.g., antifreeze, oil), any unnumbered containers, and styrofoam. All items need to be cleaned of food and grease.
 
HOW
All recyclables can be placed in a single bin at the curb; no sorting required.
