Casella Trash, Recycling, & Yard Waste
General Inquiries (302) 378-5400
Casella is always striving to provide our customers with the best quality service and lowest possible rates. In an effort to make their routes as efficient as possible and cut down on the number of times trucks are in the local communities, trash and recycling service days will both occur on the same day beginning Monday, July 1, 2013.
For additional information and services provided by Casella, including their holiday schedule pick up click here.
Remember to be courteous to your neighbors. Ensure your lids are secure on your trash and recycling containers and that any bags are securely tied. There have been complaints of trash blowing throughout the Town on trash and recycling pickup service days. Please help keep the Town clean and take responsibility for your garbage.
