Recycling in Burlington
BTV Recycling Program
Since 1992, recycling for residences and businesses in Burlington has been mandatory. The Department of Public Works provides curbside recycling collection for all residential properties, while private haulers provide recycling service for commercial properties and businesses. Our recycling crew makes between 1,000 and 1,500 stops per day with a fleet of 3 trucks operating five days a week. The recycling program enables the diversion of approximately 5,940,000 pounds, or 440 pounds per household, of recycling per year.
Toters (fill out an application below) and bins must be curbside by 7:00am on your recycling day.
We currently have an abundance of 65G and 95G toters. Unfortunately 35G toters are out of stock until later in winter.
Small, uncovered blue bins are no longer offered at 645 Pine Street, but can be picked up at the CSWD Drop-Off Center at 339 Pine Street during hours of operation.
Recycling will not be picked up on the following 5 holidays - Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

Toters and bins must be curbside by 7:00am on your recycling day, unless otherwise approved by DPW. Please note carts may be removed by DPW if they are repeatedly contaminated with non-recyclables.
To prevent windblown litter, please place heavier recyclables on the top of your blue bins and/or stack the bins. Please help keep our neighborhoods clean!
