An Act to increase access to recycling

HD 3319 requires all Massachusetts cities and towns offering curbside trash collection to also provide curbside recycling pickup. It mandates that waste drop-off sites must offer recycling services. The bill prohibits mixing recyclable materials with trash destined for disposal and requires waste collectors to provide single- or dual-stream recycling collection for all residential and commercial customers at least once every other week, using appropriately sized containers. This directly affects municipalities, waste collection services, and residents/commercial businesses in Massachusetts.
