New Britain / Berlin Residents
We would like to take this opportunity to stress the importance of REDUCING, REUSING AND RECYCLING.
Recycling saves the City money. More recycling means more savings for taxpayers. Make sure you are recycling only acceptable items outlined on your blue cart.
In addition to Single Stream Recycling, this sheet outlines disposal guidelines for a variety of common disposal items, including leaves and hazardous household waste.
“Simple” Recycling Program - Soft recyclables (i.e. clothing, shoes, handbags, household textiles that have reached the end of their useful life) are collected curbside. The collection will occur on your regularly scheduled recycling day in bags that are provided at no charge. The benefits are convenience, revenue and a cost savings to the city and taxpayers. Visit: SimpleRecycling.com; Call 866-835-5068; Email info@simplerecycling.com.
NEW BRITAIN RESIDENTS - TRASH/RECYCLING CONTAINER REPLACEMENT
Visit the City of New Britain Public Works, (860) 826-3350, to obtain an application. The cart(s) will be delivered within 3 working days of receipt of the application and $75 per cart fee.

Protect our Rivers & Streams
Stop Drain Pollution-Remember storm drains empty into our waterways.
- Don’t Litter – Place litter in trash cans.
- Don’t Dump Oil, Antifreeze or other chemicals down the storm drain.
- Don’t allow your car to leak fluids. Fluids wash into storm drains when it rains.
- Don’t allow oil or paint spills to accumulate on driveways or sidewalk.
- Don’t wash leaves, twigs or dirt into storm drains.
- Even natural materials can pollute water.
- Don’t wash out paint brushes, pans or rollers in the gutter.
- Drop off toxic chemicals at your local hazardous waste collection. Visit www.brrfoc.org for the collection dates and locations
