♻️ Please Help Keep Our Recycling Drop-Off Area Clean ♻

The Town of Chestertown is grateful to Vault Storage for serving as a community partner by allowing the Town’s recycling bins to be located on its property for public use.

Recently, trash and other non-recyclable items have been left and littered around the recycling collection area. This location is provided specifically for the drop-off of accepted recyclable materials. Trash, Styrofoam, household waste, and other non-recyclable items should never be left at the site or placed around the recycling bins.

Please help us respect their property and maintain this valuable service by placing appropriate materials in the recycling bins and taking all trash and non-recyclable items with you when you leave.
