  • While recycling in the Town of Strafford is not mandatory, the Town strongly encourages residents to recycle any and all recyclable materials. 
  • Recycling not only keeps unnecessary waste out of landfills, it saves tax dollars.
  • We would also like to remind everyone that if you are running a business, you should make arrangements for commercial trash disposal.
  • The Transfer Center is only for residential trash disposal.
    Thank you
