Easy in and easy out but the hours are terrible people work at least until 5 so why not be open until then and the people that get weekends off can't go to the dump because they are closed. Connecticut wonders why people go into the woods and dump their stuff. These hours have to be fixed

Not open on Saturday when everyone is off work and able to do dump runs. Why the heck are we even paying these crazy taxes if these guys can’t be bothered to come in on the weekend? That and their crazy hours (closing at 3:00…). Seems like quite a cushy job.
