Why Choose Us?

East Bridgewater runs its own curbside collection through the DPW, and plenty of households are on it. Here is the straight comparison.

$500
a year for the town's own service

The DPW charges $125 a quarter for one set of trash and recycling totes, $500 over a year, arriving as four separate bills.

26
town recycling collections, not 52

On the town's program recycling is collected every other week, so cardboard and bottles sit in the garage for two weeks between pickups. That is twenty-six collections a year instead of fifty-two.

2
Saturdays a month, most of the year

The town's recycling center is open two Saturdays a month from April to November, four days a month from December to March, 7:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. A five-hour window, twice a month for two thirds of the year, and you have to be free on a Saturday morning to use it.

What we do instead

Every Thursday, from your curb, for $30 a month flat: $360 a year, with trash and recycling both collected every single week. Totes included, one bill, and bulky items are a phone call and a price we tell you before we come.
