TRUMBULL — In anticipation of Flag Day, State Reps. David Rutigliano, Laura Devlin and Ben McGorty in cooperation with the Trumbull American Legion Post #141 are encouraging Trumbull residents to dispose of their worn American flags in a dignified and respectful way.

Drop off locations are:
- Trumbull Town Library, 33 Quality Street, Trumbull
- Trumbull Town Hall, 5866 Main Street
- Fairchild-Nichols Memorial Library 1718 Huntington Turnpike, TrumbullResidents may also drop flags off at the American Legion Post #141 Trumbull.
