No Commercial Waste – that means no hazardous waste that came from a business. This is federal law and violations would stop the program.

Keep the hazardous waste in the ORIGINAL CONTAINER if at all possible.
You will need to sign in that day. If you are a voter or have a residence in Canaan or Orange as shown on the tax cards, you will be eligible. If you are a renter, please bring some proof that you are renting and/or living in Canaan or Orange.
All hazardous waste will be properly disposed of or recycled.

From Marcello Shelzi, Road Agent
Many residents have been inquiring about road grading. Road grading of Orange's dirt roads is currently scheduled through our contractor to begin at the end of May. The town does not have its own grader or other heavy equipment so your understanding throughout this year's particularly bad mud season has been much appreciated. Thank you for your questions and concerns.
