ATTENTION: The Town of Bridgewater will no longer be accepting glass during weekly recycling collection. Unfortunately, the facility that receives our recycling cannot accept glass, and we have no other recycling outlet. We will continue to look for an appropriate outlet with the hope that we may be able to resume collection of glass with our recycling in the future, but for the time being, glass should be included with normal household trash.
Point of Contact: Public Works Department (540) 908-3397.
