Elfin Lake Public Beach

Posted by & filed under Uncategorized.

Elfin Lake public beach will open for the season on Saturday, June 13th.
Visitors will see the beautiful stone path, rock wall, rain gardens and shoreline plantings completed last fall as part of a grant funded erosion reduction project.
We are asking visitors to please not disturb the new plantings both in the rain gardens and by the shore to give them a chance to mature. Kayakers and paddle boarders, please avoid the plantings when launching from the shore.
Much appreciated.

Recycle Cardboard

Posted by & filed under Uncategorized.

Transfer station employees would like to remind Wallingford residents Zero Sort can only accept cardboard 36 inches or less. Larger than 36 inches clogs up the unit. Transfer station employees would appreciate it if residents cut down cardboard to the appropriate size before you arrive at the facility as it will help operations flow smoothly and employees are not given that task.

Your cooperation  is very much appreciated.

Plastic Bag Recycling Now Available at Transfer Station

Posted by & filed under Uncategorized.

The transfer station has partnered with the Trex Plastic Film Recycling Program to provide special bins to accept:  grocery bags, bread bags, bubble wrap, dry cleaning bags, newspaper sleeves, ice bags, plastic shipping envelopes, zip-lock and other re-closable food storage bags, cereal bags, case overwrap, salt bags, pallet wrap and stretch film, wood pellet bags, produce bags.  As with all recycling, the materials should be relatively CLEAN. These items must go in the specially marked bins and NOT mixed with Zero Sort. Trex does NOT accept pet food bags, mesh/net produce bags, pool covers, frozen food bags, candy bar wrappers, chip bags, six pack rings, vinyl shower curtains (see transfer station employees if you have questions). In 2024, Wallingford residents recycle 5,288 pounds of plastic!! Congratulations
