This pass is to be used for the disposal of residential bulky waste items only (e.g. furniture, toilet/sink, carpet, small appliances, bicycles, etc.) Blue Bags (household trash), freon-charged appliances, mattresses, and box-springs will not be accepted.

We reserve the right to refuse unacceptable materials e.g. toxic/hazardous materials, large amounts of construction and demolition debris, commercial or industrial waste, etc.

• Any resident who participates in the Town sponsored Solid Waste Recycling program is eligible to purchase three Bulky Waste Passes per fiscal year (July 1, 2025 to May 9, 2026).
