The Wellesley Recycling and Disposal Facility has a few dates for you to put on your calendar. Let them help you keep things ship-shape in your home by getting rid of your old documents and paint.

DATE: Sunday, September 23, 2018
TIME: 11am – 3pm

Paint drop-off day

Bring your old latex and oil-based alkyd paint to the Wellesley RDF for recycling at the paint shed. This is the last paint drop-off day until Spring 2019.

TIME: 9am – 1pm

    Columbus day is October 8, not October 18 (as stated above). The RDF website has the correct date.
