YARD WASTE
The Plainville Municipal Collection Program does not pick up yard waste except for Christmas trees which are picked up curbside the first couple of weeks in January. Residents must deliver their materials to the compost drop off area or compost at their homes. Compost Bins are available for purchase at the Town Hall. The cost is $25.00.
