Trash Container Ordinance

The City of Biddeford has issued 65 gallon blue containers for recycling and 35 gallon green containers for trash to all eligible residents. These containers must be used for your weekly trash and recycling collection.

If you were not given a green 35 gallon trash container, or if your trash exceeds the limit of your green trash container, then you may purchase Pay As You Throw Bags. These Pay As You Throw Bags may be placed in a separate container no larger than 45 gallons.

For more information, please call the Public Works Department's Solid Waste Division at 207-282-1579.

Upgrade to a 64-Gallon Trash Cart

Residents have a new option to upgrade to a 64-gallon trash cart for a $122 yearly fee. This is a convenient option for households that frequently purchase Pay As You Throw bags. For more information on this optional program, please contact the Public Works Department at 207-282-1579. Please note that this option is only available for households that are already eligible for weekly trash and recycling collection.
