Town of Framingham Curbside Recycling Program - Updated Jan 23, 2014 Back

Recyclables are collected by a contractor, E.L. Harveys & Sons, Inc., every other week. Recycling is now collected single stream; combine all items in your recycling cart. Recycling collection is now fully automated and only materials inside the cart will be collected.

Place your recycle cart curbside at the curb by 7:00 am on your collection day. Recycling carts should be at least three feet away from the trash barrels and other objects.

Place your cart at the curb with the wheels and handles away from the street. The automated truck requires at least three feet of clearance on each side of the cart and 12 feet of overhead clearance. Only recyclables in the cart will be collected; do not overfill or jam cart full of recyclable.
