1. How does the Town handle commercial waste disposal?

All commercial and multifamily dwelling waste is collected and disposed of by the Town’s contractor, Winter Brothers. The Town’s Office of Commercial Waste oversees this operation and prepares bills while administering the program. 

Though the commercial waste collected is recycled by the contractor, the program does not offer source separated commercial waste. Those wishing to set up a source separation program must arrange to do so with a private company. The company must be a Town (Class 1) licensed waste recycling company.

For more information, call the Commercial Waste office at (631) 422- 7670 

2. How do I know if I am in a commercial waste district?

Non- residential properties located within the Town of Babylon are generally considered to be within the Commercial Waste District with the exception of schools, libraries, post offices and other public entities. These properties usually include a structure. Properties without a structure can also receive service. Properties that are located within the three Villages (Babylon, Amityville and Lindenhurst) are not in the commercial waste district.
