Reduce, Reuse and Recycle in Essex

ESSEX, CT —Donating Matters:

According to a recent town of Essex Facebook post, local and national charities and services play an important role in keeping lightly used items out of landfills as well as finding new homes for the continued use of your valuable stuff. Donating useful items can dramatically cut down on the number of items you throw away as trash and help out your community in the process. Recycling creates new items from old, donation gives items a longer life, and compost can enrich and fertilize the soil. If you have clothing, linens or footwear that aren't donation worthy, bring them to the TEXTILE BINS at the Essex Transfer station!
