The Barre Town Spring Bulk Trash Collection is this Saturday, June 13, 8am-2pm at the Department of Public Works Yard, 129 Websterville Rd.
This service is for town residents to clean up around their home and house lot of large items that won't fit in a garbage bag. It is not for cleaning up rental property or businesses. Residents must bring a tax or utility bill, or their Barre Town newsletter with mailing label and drivers license, to verify residency.

MATERIALS OF NOTE
-Roofing shingle: Note that no vans or box trailers with loose roofing shingles will be accepted. Roofing shingles are to be in containers allowing easy offloading. Any cars, pick-up trucks or open trailers with loose loads of shingle will be directed to wait for a break in the line and charged double.
-Concrete, asphalt, bricks, blocks, large stones: Keep these items separate so that they can be set aside for recycling.
-Building demo: Small pieces of sheetrock, plaster, tile, wood scraps, etc. must be in containers allowing easy offloading. Loose loads will be directed to wait for a break in the line.
-Mattresses, box springs: Please keep mattresses clean and dry so they may be recycled, and place at the TOP of your load so it can be unloaded first. The fee for any mattress or box spring is $20 each to offset the cost of recycling, whether or not it can be recycled.
SALVAGING is permitted. Volunteers place reusable items outside the gate throughout the collection. However, the items have NOT been disinfected for coronavirus; take and use at your own risk. Use hand sanitizer or wash your hands with soap and water after you've touched any items. Storing them for a week before use is a good idea.
