Yard waste can be taken to the yard waste section of the baler Monday - Friday 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Grass bins are available at Jirdon Park, East E and 28th Ave, College Drive North of the softball fields, East K & 15th, or Curtis Ave. Please only put lawn clippings or loose leaves in the grass bins. No branches or limbs.
The following items CANNOT be taken at the landfill:
Refrigerators and freezers must be certified following federal compliance before they can be accepted at the landfill. Contact Leitheads Appliance in Torrington for assistance in certifying before disposal.
It is very important that household waste, construction waste, yard waste and grass clippings all go into their appropriate disposal areas. Grass is able to be composted, but not if household waste is mixed in with it. Household waste is baled to minimize volume in our landfill. When garbage is inappropriately thrown away, it can cause damage to our baler and garbage trucks. Thank you for your consideration as you dispose of your waste, it saves us all time and money!
Used oil can be disposed of at the baler, in the barrel out front. Ask for help at the office if you need assistance.
The landfill is open from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
