Trash & Recycling
Plainfield currently contracts with Casella Waste Systems for curbside collection of refuse and zero-sort recycling. All trash put curbside must be properly tagged with a "Plainfield Trash" sticker which can be purchased at the Plainfield Store, Meriden Deli, both libraries and the Town Office. Each sticker used covers the disposal cost of thirty pounds of garbage.
Additional opportunities are available at the Lebanon Recycling Center located at 370 Plainfield Road (Route 12-A) in Lebanon, NH.
