Mandatory recycling starts July 1, here’s how to comply By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The city’s mandatory recycling program will begin on Monday, July 1. It will change the protocol for the curbside collection of solid waste, both trash and recyclables. Trash will continue to be collected each week and recyclables every other week. However, as of July 1 residents will be required to separate their recyclables from their trash in
order for their trash to be collected. All trash must be bagged in a container, typically a trash can. No loose trash will be collected. The number of containers left at the curb to be emptied is limited. Single-family homes and duplex units may place two 30-gallon containers at the curb. Commercial establishments and multi-family dwellings may place seven 30-gallon containers at the curb.
Beginning on July 1 recyclables must be separated from trash. Trash will not be collected at addresses that fail to recycle. During the first week, from July 1 to July 6, those who fail to recycle, exceed the maximum limit of containers or leave loose trash at the curb will be issued a ticket explaining the violation and the trash will be collected. From July 8 onward violators will be ticketed and their trash will not be see RECYCLING page 8
