This facility accepts HHW collection May through November.
Residents of participating towns can drop off up to "two units" (one unit equals 10 gallons of liquid, 20 pounds of dry material) at no cost. Some towns will make arrangements for residents to drop off more than the 10 gallon limit at no cost to the resident. Please call or visit the website to see if your community is eligible for participation at this facility.
Residents from other towns or residents having more than 10 gallons can pay a fee. The fee is $27.50 for 5 gallons or any part thereof. Cash and checks made payable to Androscoggin Valley Council of Governments (AVCOG) are accepted as payment.
