The Mission of the Peterborough Recycling Center is to serve the residents of Peterborough and Sharon, according to NH General Court RSA: 149-M, to protect human health, to protect the environment, and to conserve precious and dwindling resources through the proper and integrated management of solid waste: by diverting as much as possible from our municipal waste stream by means of recycling, composting, community-based reuse, and public education; and, as market conditions allow, by creating revenue to defray the operating costs of Peterborough’s Recycling program.
