Zero Waste Day and Shred Event October 25The Chelmsford Recycling Committee will hold its annual Zero Waste Day (Rain or Shine) on Saturday, October 25 from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, at McCarthy Middle School, 250 North Road. This event is an opportunity to keep usable goods out of the waste stream, saving tax dollars on trash incineration fees and reducing greenhouse gases that result from burning household items. This is a “one-stop drop”, free event that allows homeowners to donate items to multiple nonprofits at the same time and same place.
We have partnered with the following local organizations to collect donated items: CMRK (clothing, dishware, sports equipment), Household Goods Inc. (furniture), Shred-it (paper shredding), Friends of the library (books, textbooks, CDs, DVDs), DPW (tires), Cambridge Bike Giveback (bicycles and parts), Recycling Committee (batteries and fluorescent bulbs), UTEC (mattresses and box springs) and the Chelmsford Food Pantry (non-perishable food and cash donations). For more details on accepted items, click here.
Shred-it, Tires, and Mattresses/Box Springs will be limited to Chelmsford residents with proof of residency. All other stations will be open to non-residents.
Contact Chris Haley, Sustainability Manager at [email protected] or 978-250-5203 with any questions.
