The Town of Easton will provide a collection point at the town garage on the Fry Pan Road for household junk, such as appliances, tires, furniture, wood, etc., on Saturday, May 18, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This is for Easton residents only.  Wood products must be separated. No household garbage or used oil, and no commercial loads.  

There will also be a collection point next to the recycling igloos behind the town office to dispose of electronics such as:  televisions, computers, monitors, printers, fluorescent bulbs, circuit boards, cell phones, fax machines, scanners, laptops, DVD/VCR players, batteries and copiers.   All recyclables must be deposited in the igloos behind the town office.

Coordinate your spring cleaning with the Town Cleanup Day and make use of our efforts to make Easton a more beautiful place to live.  

Call 488-6652 with any questions.
