Stick around anyway to learn about recycling & composting best practices! The District is created and shall exist for the purpose of providing for the efficient, economical, and environmentally sound disposal and reduction of solid waste generated by member municipalities and their residents in Franklin and Grand Isle Counties of Vermont. The NWSWD achieves this goal through services and programs offered to member communities. The District operates facilities for the collection and recycling of solid waste. We also engage in public education aimed at recycling and reducing the volume of solid waste. The District also engages in innovative projects for the purpose of recycling and disposing of unique waste in an environmentally sound manner.

By working together to reuse, we can prevent needless landfill waste. Great work, everyone!

It’s that time of year where we wash and sanitize all the pots returned over the season

This process is daunting but together we have all kept 1000’s of plastic pots from being transported to the landfills

Thanks to all of you for supporting this mission

Beep beep! 🛢️🫟 Cold Hollow Career Center's automotive program stopped by today to dispose of old paint and motor oil... so we made a proper field trip of it. The students spent time in the hazardous waste depot with our hazmat specialist Matt, learning about different chemicals' disposal requirements and best safety practices. Thank you for teaching the next generation to dispose responsibly.
