Dartmouth's DPW collects trash and recycling weekly for households in its program, and the transfer station opens only Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Miss all three and the pile waits another week.
Furniture, carpet and trash not in an orange town bag are not priced per item at Dartmouth's station. They go on the scale: $13 for anything up to 200 pounds. After that it is 6.5 cents a pound, and you find out what your sofa costs once they have weighed it.
A mattress is $40 if you drive it there yourself and $50 for the town to collect it, four items maximum, by appointment only.
A year ago the town program was $110. In July it went to $140 a year plus bags. Every bag still has to be an orange town bag, now $12 for five 33-gallon, up from $10, so two bags a week, bought in rolls of five, comes to about $392 a year.
Every Tuesday, from your curb, for $35 a month flat, trash and recycling both weekly. Bulky items are a phone call and a flat price we tell you before we come. No scale, no appointment queue. That is $420 for the year, about $2.30 a month more than the town program and its bags. Your rate is guaranteed for a year.

Every Tuesday. Have your totes at the curb by 7:00 a.m. Recycling is collected the same day, every week. When a weekday holiday falls on or before your pickup day, your pickup moves one day later. See the holiday schedule.
New customers start at $35 a month for two 64-gallon totes, $40 for a 96-gallon trash tote with a 64-gallon recycling tote, and $45 for two 96-gallon totes. One flat monthly rate, totes included, no hidden fees. Your rate is guaranteed for 1 year from your start date.
A 64-gallon tote holds about four large kitchen bags and a 96-gallon tote about seven. One or two people usually fit in the 64. A household of four or more usually needs the 96. If you outgrow it, call and we swap it.
The transfer station on Russells Mills Road is open Tuesday and Thursday 7:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. It is closed the rest of the week. Or skip the trip: Carney picks up at your curb every Tuesday for $35 a month.
