Trash and Recycling

If your building has an on-site dumpster then you may dispose of your trash without purchasing the yellow City of Worcester trash bags. However, if your building does not have an on-site dumpster you must dispose of trash in the yellow City of Worcester trash bags which are available at most markets, convenience and drug stores.

Recycling bins are available from the Worcester Department of Public Works and can be used by any resident looking to recycle.

Please be considerate of your neighbors and properly dispose of trash. Any excessive trash removed by Hampton Properties will be charged at a minimum $25.00 per trash bag/item to the responsible unit. If the unit cannot be identified, then the charges will be assessed to the entire building.
