Recycling in East Windsor, Connecticut
East Windsor is a Hartford-area town with curbside trash and every-other-week single-stream recycling, plus Public Works programs for the bulky items carts cannot take. Seasonal drop-offs at the F&G Transfer Station on Shoham Road handle furniture and metal for residents who bring proof of address, while refrigerators, mattresses, and similar specialty items route to the Woolam Road DPW yard on weekdays. Knowing which list belongs at which gate prevents a rejected load.
