Solid Waste Committee

The Solid Waste Committee was formed to explore options for Town Trash Collection. Currently, the town has a contract for curbside pick-up of household trash that includes single-sort recycling, this contract expires June 30, 2024. The cost of providing this service is increasing and the Durham Selectboard would like this committee to explore and or research other available options and present these options at a regular Selectboard Meeting in January 2024. This committee will consist of 5 members and 2 alternates. 
 
Tasks of this committee would include:

  • Alternatives to curbside collections (transfer station?)
  • Exploring "green" technology/Eco-Maine
  • Drafting a Solid Waste Ordinance
