Thursday Pickup

Curbside Trash & Recycling
Trash in one tote, recycling in the other, in the sizes that fit your household. Both are collected from the curb on your pickup day.

Bulk Items

Mattresses, furniture, appliances, TVs and tires cannot go in your tote, but we pick them up by appointment at a flat price per item.

Bulk Prices

Yard Waste

$7 per brown bag. Middleboro's landfill takes yard waste, but you still load the car and drive it there. We come to you.

Why Choose Us?

Plenty of Middleboro households take their own bulky waste to the Brook Street landfill, and for some of them that is the right call. Here is the honest comparison.

12
visits, not a year

Middleboro's $30 permit covers twelve visits for the whole 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.

What we do instead

Every Thursday, from your curb, for $30 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.
