When will my Trash/Recycling be picked up?

Trash is picked up weekly. Recycling is picked up every other week. If a town holiday is the same day as your pickup day, the collections will be made on the next business day.

During snowstorms, do not put your bins out before the streets are plowed. During extreme weather events, see the East Lyme Public Safety Facebook page or eltownhall.com for further information.

Find your Pickup Day of Week and Recycling Pickup Week by entering your street name or use the map found in the Downloads section below.
