Recycling just got easier!
As of May 7, 2007, there is no need to sort or separate recyclables by type. Simply combine all glass, metal, paper, cardboard, and plastics into one recycling container and place it at curbside on your trash pick-up day
There will be no trash or recycling collection on the following days:
1. New Years Day, January 1
2. Independence Day, July 4
3. Thanksgiving Day, last Thursday in November
4. Christmas, December 25
Homes that are scheduled for trash pick up on those four holidays are picked up the next day. For example, if July 4 is on a Monday, and your normal trash collection day is Monday, your trash will be picked up on Tuesday . This Pushes trash and recycling collection for the rest of the week back one day... Wednesday's routes will be collected on Thursday and Thursday's routes will be collected on Friday. The following week we will return to the normal collection schedule.
Storm events may also cause similar schedule changes.
If you have questions, feel free to contact Public Works at 892-3649.
The Gorham Transfer Station will no longer be open to the public as of April 2, 2006.
Gorham Public Works will still accept used motor oil by appointment only, Monday through Thursday between 12:00 and 1:00.
We accept leaves and grass clippings at any time, no appointment necessary. Compost Units are also available at Public Works for a cost of $40. We will have the spring and fall brush drop off, two Saturdays in the spring and fall. We will put a notice of the dates and time in the Gorham Times and the Town of Gorham website prior to the event.
