New Carts for Trash Service- Charlie’s Waste Services

New Carts for Trash Service In our last town council meeting the Town trash and recycling services contract was awarded to Charlies Waste Services based out of Camden, DE.  We felt the change in trash companies was in the best interest of the town. The exciting news with our new company is that Charlie’s Waste Services has agreed to place a new Charlie’s owned 96-gallon trash cart at each home.  These new carts will help with the aesthetics of the town on trash day, prevent material from blowing all over the town on windy days, help keep critters out of our garbage and most importantly help Charlies become more operationally efficient which ultimately keeps our cost down. During the final week of the month you will be receiving these carts and we ask that you start to use them starting July 1st.  If you have more material then fits into […]

This parcel provided a nucleus around which the rest of the town was surveyed and laid out in lots by Jonathan Emerson in 1772. In 1796, one of his […]
