Regular domestic household trash is picked up weekly on Fridays. Trash should be in heavy-duty trash bags or covered containers and be roadside by 7:00 AM each Friday to ensure pickup. Containers should not weigh more than 40 pounds. This is for Residential trash only.Businesses must use an alternative method to dispose of trash.
Pieces of carpet must be cut into 4-foot sections, 1 tire not on a rim, aerosol cans that are empty, opened-dried-out cans of latex paint, and regular alkaline batteries are also accepted in the weekly pickup.
Items not accepted at roadside pickup can be taken to Pine Tree Landfill or Waste Management of Maine Transfer Station. You do not need a permit to go to either place. Please call in advance to confirm hours and rates as they are subject to change. The Brewer Landfill is full and will no longer accept items from Eddington residents.
