Small Metal Collection
Notice: Change in acceptable material
Items listed on our bulk metal collection web page requiring a collection permit will no longer be accepted at the monthly small metal collections.
The intent of the small metal collection program was to allow residents with small metal items, such as coffee pots, pots and pans and items of similar size, the opportunity to recycle those items instead of disposing of them with their regular refuse. Only Items that can fit inside in a town-issued blue recycling bin, or a bin of similar size, will be accepted. The contents of the bin cannot weigh more than 60 pounds.
Small metal collections are held at the Brixton Street facility on the last Saturdays of April, May, June, August, September and October. Collections are for West Hartford residents only and run from 9:00 AM to 12:00 noon. Brixton St. is off of the Oakwood Avenue extension off New Park Ave.
Please contact the Department of Public Works at 561-8100 for additional information.

Thank you for your environmental concern - and REMEMBER TO REDUCE, REUSE, AND RECYCLE; it's a first step towards a more sustainable world.
