12
visits, not a year

Middleboro runs its own curbside program for a quarterly DPW fee. The $30 landfill permit covers twelve visits a calendar year, about one a month, and only one permit is allowed per residence. Commercial plates are turned away.

0
bags of household trash accepted

Household rubbish is banned at the landfill entirely. The permit covers bulky items and recycling, so your weekly trash still needs somewhere else to go.

$40
per mattress, paid at the DPW office

A mattress or box spring is $40, and the fee is paid at the DPW office rather than at the gate. A stuffed sofa is $21, a sleep sofa $25, a refrigerator $21.

$357
a year for town curbside

At $89.25 a quarter, the town program comes to $357 a year, for a 64-gallon trash cart picked up weekly and a 96-gallon recycling cart picked up every other week.

What we do instead

Every Thursday, from your curb, for $35 a month flat for trash and recycling both, no visit counter. Bulky items are a phone call and a price we tell you before we come. That is $420 for the year, about $5 a month more than the town, with recycling every week instead of every other week.
