Other notes
- The C Ha RM page says ten tires per household per visit; the automotive page says ten per household per year. These conflict. Confirm the annual allowance; all tires must be clean, and rims are accepted.
- Brimfield ordinary streams include paper, cardboard, glass bottles/jars, metal cans and plastic bottles/jugs/tubs. Separate collections include automotive liquids, car batteries, scrap metal, film, yard waste, compost and cooking oil. Follow designated containers, not single-stream bins for everything.
- Automotive fluids must be unmixed in clearly labeled containers with lids. Fuel belongs in the narrower HHW service, not the ordinary oil collection.
- C Ha RM lists appliances including refrigerators/freezers, electronics and paper shredding. For shredding remove clips, rubber bands, folders and bindings. Do not leave special items after staffed hours.
- Other district drop-offs in Charlestown, Edinburg, Nelson, Palmyra, Paris and Randolph accept only listed single-stream materials. Brimfield special streams must not be presumed available at every site.
