Recycling
The Village of Wellington encourages
all residents to recycle. Recycling not only extends the life of
our local landfill and reduces the need for incineration; it
saves energy and prevents pollution. Recycling also creates new
products that we use everyday- from soda containers to writing
paper.
Recycling is collected once per week
curbside (see
Collection Schedule). Items accepted for collection are
listed below.
