Curbside Automated Collection

Automated Trash & Collection in Methuen

• Service automation is more efficient, safer, and cleaner.
• For Methuen residents, trash and recycling days won't be changing, but routes will be completed more quickly and reliably.
• We will have cleaner streets.
• Workers will be at less risk of injury. The backbreaking work of hoisting and dumping trash cans and recycling bins will no longer be done manually.
• And taxpayer money will be saved as our new system encourages households to manage cart capacity and recycle.
• Per tonnage cost to the City for recycling is currently about one-third of solid waste disposal cost.
