Holidays: Presidents’ Day (Feb. 17) is not a trash holiday. Trash and recycling must be out on your regularly scheduled day. Paine’s has an alert system that will notify you of any changes to your pickup schedule. Signup at painesinc.com
Salt and Sand: A mix of sand and salt mix is available at the Granby Animal Shelter across from the McLean Game Refuge on Route 10. Residents are welcome to the equivalent of one 5-gallon bucket at a time.
DPW crews: The weather this winter has allowed us to continue working on jobs such as tree cutting and ditch cleaning. Please use caution when approaching any area where a crew is working.
Recycling: Do you have questions on recycling? Check out recyclect.com or follow them on Facebook.
Plastic Film: Plastic bags and plastic wrap should never go in your single stream barrel. Plastic film is recyclable but only in designated collection boxes at local stores. Plastic shopping bags, clean plastic wrap, wrap from products such as toilet paper, napkins, etc. can be placed in collection containers located at the entrance of some local stores.
Winter Operations: Please read the DPW Winter Hints in this month’s Drummer or check the Public Works page on the Granby website at granby-ct.gov
