 Most important to understand, it is a law and there are rules. You agreed to these laws and rules when you chose a Vermont property. Recycling & composting is mandatory law in Vermont - ACT 148.

PLEASE ADVISE US IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH RECYCLING. WE WILL HELP.

This is important because it is a SAFETY issue for everyone.  It is so important to our environment and future. Vermont is well-versed in recycling.

BASICALLY- Remove caps ~ rinse ~ sort into labeled bins in a clean and organized recycling area all set up for you to easily use: 

1) Trash                                                                                                     Black square Trash Bins

2) Zero sort for glass, plastic, & tin                                                      

3) Cardboard                                                                                             

4) Redeemable containers                                                                     Black Small Round Bin

5) Compost - see seasonal directions.                                                See Seasonal

   we aim to make this pretty easy and most importantly, educational. All recycling and compost must be removed from the home and placed in designated bins and compost area provided for you outside. How this is done seasonally can change and we will advise you. Per recycling center rules- Containers must be 

 so they don’t (stink)  attract critters great and small. Dirty containers will attract wildlife and we don't want to be known as a dining hot spot or takeout. Containers also need to have the 

 as it helps the recycling workers. Don’t forget to bungee cord the trash cans. The raccoons and bears will come and party down. They will most likely bring friends.

 NEVER put food in the trash! It attracts wild animals. It goes into the compost if not dairy/meat. Wrap meat and dairy in plastic bags and place them in the freezer, and we will dispose of them. Using your paper products to start fires in the fireplace or fire pit is highly recommended

 The recycling area is set up behind the lean-to shed in the summer. For summer rentals, the compost bucket is located on the back deck. Please wrap any leftover or unused meat & dairy and place them in the freezer; we will dispose of them. Trash days are Mondays around 8:30 - 9:00 AM. Recycling is every other Monday, so on alternate weeks we put it in our car and take it to our local recycling center. We won’t be happy if it smells. RINSE RINSE RINSE!

 The same rules apply in the winter except the recycling area is set up on the porch. We set up an aluminum pail on the porch available for you to place your compost in. Just be sure to latch the handle to the pail.
