Town of Suffield information
2008 Trash pick up will be delayed one day during the week when the below listed holiday occurs:
| New Year's Day | Memorial Day |
| Independence Day | Labor Day |
| Thanksgiving Day | Christmas Day |
Here are some tips that will allow us to serve you better.
Put the trash dump cart out the night before your collection day or before 6 a.m. on collection day. The ideal location is the left of your driveway when facing the street. Be sure that the dump cart handle faces your house and the can is within 2 feet of the road edge and 3-4 feet from obstructions, such as fences, lamp posts, mail boxes, trees, cars and recycling bins.
Use your dump cart container for regular solid waste, which consists of non-recyclable normal household trash created by a single family. Plastic bags inside the dump cart are recommended. Extra trash left outside your dump cart will not be picked up. Additional dump carts can be ordered from the Town Hall.
Do Not overload the dump cart
Do Not dump hot ashes or flammable items in your cart
Do Not dump grass clippings, brush or sand in your cart
Do Not use your cart for paint or other hazardous liquids
Do Not use your cart for glass, metal food containers, newspaper, magazines, corrugated cardboard, plastics #1 & #2, aseptic packaging, motor oil & antifreeze - These are recyclable
When selling your home, leave the dump cart and recycle bin with the house. This is town property, assigned to that residence. If you are moving to a newly constructed home within Suffield, call 668-3838 to have a new trash cart and bin dropped off at that location.
