Refuse Collection Notice
Return to Winter Schedule
The Town of Mount Desert’s summer trash collection schedule will end on Saturday, September 10, 2022. This will be the last week for twice a week collection. The winter trash collection schedule will start Monday, September 12, 2022. Trash will be collected once a week as of this date. The collection schedule is available in the Town Report and on the front page of our website.
Town policy allows refuse truck drivers to use discretion when collecting refuse on PRIVATE roads and ways AFTER November 1ST or the first snowfall, whichever comes first. Drivers will collect from the same private roads and ways we typically have collected from during the winter months whenever conditions are suitable and safe. To aid collection, please be sure your private road is plowed and sanded or place your refuse curbside on the nearest public road.
All trash must be curbside by 7:00 A.M. on your scheduled collection day.
You may call the “Garbage Hotline” at 276-5733 to leave a message regarding trash collection.
