Great staff. No residency requirement. $90/ton. Closes at 3. Biggest garbage site in town that's not on Dekoven or Court St. Note (10/20/23): residency requirements are now being enforced. Obviously prices have gone up.

We just squeaked in with a pick up load of leaves and yard waste to find the gate closed! Oh no! I had driven an hour in my truck to help a friend and was so bummed. But the friendly sanitation employee saw our plight and allowed us to dump our compostables. Love you!
