SOLID WASTE

TRASH AND RECYCLING COLLECTION
Trash and recycling must be placed curbside by 7 a.m. Alternative Recycling Systems picks up both trash and recycling on Friday mornings. Pickup will only be affected by a holiday if the holiday falls on a Friday. In that case, pickup will move to the following Monday. If there is a problem with your rubbish or recycling pickup, please call Alternative Recycling Systems directly at (413) 587-4005 as soon as possible. If you do not get satisfaction or feel further discussion is warranted, please call the Selectboard's office at 863-9347 and we'll be glad to assist.

Trash stickers are available for $3.00 each at the Gill Mobil Station, Jan's Package Store, Town Hall, and Upinngil Farm.

Gill residents may also use the Greenfield transfer station for a $5 per day user fee. This is a flat rate for multiple trips in one day. Then there is a per item charge as follows: GREENFIELD RECYCLING CENTER FEE SCHEDULE.

Gill is also a member of the Franklin County Solid Waste Management District, which holds several regional events each year to assist residents in disposing of hazardous waste, bulky items, etc. Visit their website if you have any questions on how to dispose of any item at any time throughout the year.
