Community Guide to Trash and Recycling

We are working with Waste Management (www.WM.com) to handle our trash

AND recycling collection at LHSC. 


We have two dumpsters at both the front and rear locations:

  • One larger one only for trash;

  • One smaller only for recycling (see recycling label on dumpster).

 

Here's a handy video demonstrating how our dumpsters work:

Trash

  • Household trash should be bagged and tossed into the Trash dumpster

    • We recommend using compostable bags since plastic is forever!

  • For large, bulky items (e.g., furniture, appliances, construction debris, etc.) 

    • Hold onto these and put them into the extra dumpsters we rent over Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends; or

    • Take them to the Cochecton Transfer Station at 433 Mitchell Pond East Road open on Wednesday and Saturday, 7:45am – 2:45pm, https://townofcochectonny.org/government/transfer-station/.
