Addison County Solid Waste Management District

10/14/2026

It’s required for all facilities and haulers in Addison County to collect the “mandated recyclables.” The “mandated recyclables” are banned from trash disposal: glass bottles and jars, plastic bottles and jugs, boxboard, corrugated cardboard, magazines, aluminum and steel cans, aluminum foil and pie plates, and paper.

More than just the mandated recyclables are accepted in curbside collection systems. For help answering any recycling questions, look at the District’s A-Z Guide at AddisonCountyRecycles.org/guide. If you are still confused, feel free to call the District at (802) 388-2333 for help or email [email protected].

Look at this avocado. It’s been sitting on the counter, waiting patiently ever since it came home from the grocery store to become guacamole or something delicious… and now it’s wondering if anyone even cares. 😢

In Vermont, some electronics are covered by an extended producer responsibility (EPR) law, known colloquially as the E-Waste law. Vermont’s E-Waste Law bans some electronics from landfill disposal. At the District Transfer Station, we take all of these banned electronics, plus accessories and smaller electronics, for special recycling. For some banned devices, there is free drop-off for covered entities. To read more about electronic waste, check out the electronics tab on our A-Z Guide.
