2011 Proposed Budget
The GUVSWD's FY2011 Proposed Budget is available.


Landfill Proposals
The Greater Upper Valley Solid Waste Management District is currently reviewing Proposals For the Construction and Operation of the North Hartland Landfill. A financial advisor has been retained and we expect the board to decide on the best course of action this spring.


Electronics Recycling news!
Two news items on electronics recycling: Sony has teamed up with our electronics recycler to offer free recycling for all Sony brand televisions. Bring your Sony TV to our office or special events for free recycling! New Hampshire has updated their landfill ban on electronics to add VCR's, DVD players, and computer CPU's to the ban. Most of the trash from GUVSWD towns currently goes to Lebanon, NH so we need to keep these items out of the trash. We recycle all items with a cord, for a fee, at our office and recycling events.


Home Composters are sold out for 2009! Recycling Bins Are In Stock and Ready to go!
Recycling Bins are $7.


Bridge Construction and Route 5 intersection work is complete
The bridge that will connect the proposed GUVSWMD landfill with Route 5 is complete. The bridge passed the substantial completion review by Vermont Transportation Agency in early November 2008 and our partners have completed revitalizing the Route 5 intersection.
