Curbside Pickup
We operate Monday - Friday. Items are picked up the same day as Garbage. We will remove tree limbs and debris that have been cut and moved to the road by the resident. Items such as appliances, furniture, cardboard boxes, etc., will be removed the same day. Construction material (i.e. building wood, fences, concrete, etc…) or any material placed by a Contractor will not be removed by the town.
Cemeteries
We own four cemeteries: Unity, Old Unity, Greenhill and Macedonia Cemeteries. Unity Cemetery is patrolled for damaged, faded, out-of-compliance items twice each year and those items are removed. Flowers that are new or are in good shape are not affected by the clean-up.
