IF YOUR GARBAGE OR RECYCLING IS NOT PICKED UP YOU CAN CALL AND CHECK WITH VEOLIA WASTE SERVICES AT: 1-800-279-1930

PLEASE NOTE: Buchanan now uses single-stream recycling.  This means that all recycling can be placed in one recycling container (paper, cardboard, aluminum, tin, plastic and glass may now be mixed together).

Please help to keep your neighborhood clean by doing the following:

• Your garbage and recyclables must be out by 6:00 a.m. on your scheduled pickup day.  To verify your garbage and recycling day please click on the following link:  Buchanan Garbage and Recycling Days.
• There is a limit of no more than FIVE 30-gallon trash bags per residence per week.
• No bag or container should weigh more than 50 lbs.
• Bag and close all garbage even if you are using a garbage can.
• Be sure to bag packing materials such as packing peanuts, bubble wrap, etc.
• Make sure that your garbage and recyclables are on the same side of the street CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. Veolia is using one truck to pick up your recycling and garbage all at once.
• Large over sized items and appliances require stickers that need to be purchased at the Town Hall weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.  You will then be added to the list for the next large item or appliance pick up.  For more information regarding these large item pick-ups please click on the following link:  Appliance & Bulky Item Pick up Information.
• Recycling is mandatory and if it is mixed with regular trash, it can be refused to be picked up. 
• Cardboard should be cut into pieces no larger than 2' x 2', then placed in with all other recycling.
• Blue recycling bags are no longer accepted.  Please use a container clearly marked with a recycling emblem.  There are recycling stickers available at the Town Hall if you would like to designate your own container.

If you have any questions, please call the Town of Buchanan at 734-8599 or Veolia Environmental Services toll free at 1(800)279-1930.
