MADE POSSIBLE BY OUR VALUED VOLUNTEERS
WAREHAM VOLUNTEERS RECYCLING
With thanks to all our volunteers, the Recycling Drop-off Center is open year round on Wednesdays from 1 to 3 PM and Saturdays 9 AM to 1 PM, rain or shine, snow or sleet, hot or freezing (well, usually it is). This year they provided hundreds of hours of donated time and were responsible for tons of items being taken out of the trash stream through their recycling efforts.
