Description:

 

The purpose of the Recycling Committee is to advise the Town on all matters pertaining to recycling. The Topsfield Recycling Program is a community effort sponsored jointly by the Topsfield Recycling Committee and the Highway Department.

.
Its objectives are to:

• Protect our environment by keeping toxins and other materials out of the Northeast Solid Waste Collection (waste to-energy) facility;
• Save money for Topsfield by avoiding fees imposed for incineration of trash;
• Save resources by reusing raw materials;
• Increase the number of participants in the recycling program;
• Increase the amounts of materials that can be recycled by residents and organizations;
• Reduce the total amount of disposable solid waste;
• Improve the household hazardous waste collection and proper disposition programs;
• Heighten public awareness of recycling and related issues.
