SWAT March 2023 Survey Results and Q&A

Solid Waste Advisory Team (SWAT) Survey results with emojis

The West Boylston Solid Waste Advisory Team (SWAT) sent out a survey in January 2023 to learn how citizens currently manage waste materials/recyclables and what resources and guidance would be helpful.  This survey was spurred by new MassDEP 2030 Solid Waste Master Plan requirements that includes strict parameters for waste disposal, including banning mattresses and textiles in waste disposal. A recent report from Zero Waste Massachusetts also informed the survey questions.  Click here to view the results of the survey.
