East Windsor is a Hartford-area town with curbside trash and every-other-week single-stream recycling, plus Public Works programs for the bulky items carts cannot take. Seasonal drop-offs at the F&G Transfer Station on Shoham Road handle furniture and metal for residents who bring proof of address, while refrigerators, mattresses, and similar specialty items route to the Woolam Road DPW yard on weekdays. Knowing which list belongs at which gate prevents a rejected load.
The town's spring bulky waste and metal drop-off is scheduled for Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM at the F&G Transfer Station, 9 Shoham Road off Route 140. It is for East Windsor residents only.
The driver must show a valid driver's license and a valid vehicle registration with an East Windsor address. Property owners who do not live in town should contact Public Works ahead of time for an alternate residency method.
Accepted examples include carpet cut into 5-foot lengths and tied, small wood or metal chairs, furniture, large appliances such as dishwashers, stoves, washers, and dryers, large plastic children's toys, drained lawn mowers and snowblowers, metal items, and sofas. Stuffed chairs are not accepted at that event.
Items marked for DPW acceptance, including air conditioners, dehumidifiers, mattresses, microwave ovens, refrigerators, freezers, and tires with rims removed, go to East Windsor Department of Public Works at 6 Woolam Road. Hours are Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Call (860) 292-7073.
No. Construction and demolition debris, lumber, sheetrock, shingles, doors, windows, household trash, hazardous waste, paint, propane tanks, computers, printers, and televisions are not accepted at the Shoham Road event.
