Milford Announces Return of Extended Hours at Transfer Station

The Milford Mayor's office has issued a press release regarding waste disposal services at the Transfer Station.

Milford, CT, March 8, 2016: Mayor Benjamin G. Blake has announced the return of the extended hours at the Transfer Station, which will begin Saturday, March 19 and run through mid-December.

During the winter, the Transfer Station was open 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon on Saturdays. The extended hours will be from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Regular weekday hours will remain the same (7:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.). “This program gives residents a convenient way to dispose of their bulky trash items, while leaving less for city crews to pick up, offering a cost savings to the city,” said Mayor Blake. “I look forward to another successful program again this year.”

As a reminder, this program is for Milford residents only. The extended hours do not apply to commercial haulers. Visitors to the Transfer Station will be asked to present their vehicle registration at the gate.
