Hi Folks!
A friendly reminder that Saturday, May 7th is Green Up Day.
Once again Middlesex residents can drop off road side trash, tires, metal and junk to the town garage, located around the bend from the Rumney School, between 9am and 3pm for drop off on May 7th.
A limited number of bags are currently available at the Town Office for your convenience. Please note the Town Office is closed Friday. Bags will also be available for pickup at the Town Garage during disposal drop-off hours on Green Up Day.
Looking for a place to green-up? Route 12 and 2 always need a little extra TLC!
Hope to see you out on the Middlesex roads, making our community a cleaner and more beautiful place!
Please remember that there is no pick-up of trash bags left by the side of the road nor is this service for household trash or homeowner used tires.
Some hints: Be tick smart! The Department of Health recommends wearing long pants, inspecting your body for ticks after greening up; removing any ticks found. Repel, inspect, and remove is their advice.
Hazardous Materials: Green Up Vermont is asking that we be aware of more instances every year of hazardous materials like needles and containers from illegal drug-making activities. Be safe, please do not pick up any materials that look suspicious, especially containers with liquids still inside. Not only are these dangerous, they are also crime evidence so report it to authorities.
Illegal Dump Sites: If you know of any, please let us know where they are so we can coordinate waste removal. Smaller sites can be cleared via volunteers and pickup trucks on green-up day, while larger dump sites may require coordination with Central Vermont Solid Waste Management District. If you are willing to volunteer your time and/or truck please contact me be responding to this post or by phone at 802-309-1629.
Please wear bright clothing and remember gloves to keep yourself safe while wandering our roads greening up.
As always, a good green up can be done anytime that works for you. If you can't get out May 7th for whatever reason, go at your leisure!
