How to pay: dump permits

The station takes dump permits, not cash. Buy them ahead of time at Westport Town Hall, Department of Public Works, Room 210, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., by cash, check or credit card. Call (203) 341-1120 with questions.

Recycling is mostly free for residents; appliances and tires carry fees because they cost the town more to process. If you'd rather not haul at all, the town keeps a list of licensed refuse haulers on its website.
