The Allegany County Landfill closed in June of 2016. As you likely know, in response the Village Board of Trustees has approved contracting with LaForge Disposal Services as of June 6th, 2016. The Village continues to administrate and bill for collection services on the utility bill you receive each month.
In the Village of Wellsville our local laws require mandatory recycling. LaForge Disposal Services provide a stream-line recycling making it easy for our customers by allowing them to co-mingle recycling every week. It will be beneficial if you have a recycling container that can be used weekly. Please break down and bundle your cardboard and continue to keep it dry to assist with recycling efforts.
We know many residents have been interested in a brush pickup service so another change is that village crews will begin a new service this fall picking up brush. The Village will pick up brush annually and will announce the exact week of brush pickup service during the selected season as it approaches.
Please also note that Village crews will no longer pick up bulky trash after July 29th, 2016. Beginning in August you may call any vendor you choose to pick up your Bulk Garbage as the Village won’t have the crew in place to do so. The Village of Wellsville does not do any commercial pick up as of 2005.
