Why Choose Us?

Some Carver households buy a transfer station sticker and haul their own, and for a few of them that is the right call. Here is the honest comparison.

$140
a year, at another town's transfer station

Carver has no transfer station of its own. Residents use Wareham's, out on Route 28, and the sticker is $140 for the first vehicle and $60 for a second.

Refused
mattresses, furniture and tires

The arrangement takes bagged household waste only. Mattresses, box springs, large furniture and tires are on the prohibited list, there is no price for them because they are turned away at the gate.

52
trips to Wareham, on their hours

Open Tuesday to Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and town bags are extra at $1.25 small or $2.00 large. Roughly 26 hours a year of your time, and a longer drive than most.

What we do instead

Every Thursday, from your curb, for $30 a month flat, without leaving Carver. Mattresses, furniture and tires get scheduled at a flat price we tell you before we come.
