Household Garbage Costs will still be billed to the Town, all other dumping costs are at the Customers Expense.  Russell Manchester’s Regular Saturday Road Side Trash Pick-Up Services Schedule will not change. You will still be required to use the same Transfer Station Stickers that you’ve already been issued for the year.  If you have not purchased your annual sticker yet, they are $5 & available @ the Town Office.  

-Sorry for Any Confusion this may have caused… there initially was a mix up in communications in terms of costs to the town, switching back to Casella is the best solution to save Tax Payers some money.
