These fees took effect September 15, 2023, to offset solid waste costs. Construction debris covers painted or treated wood, shingles, sheetrock, logs over 5 inches across, insulation, plywood, building materials and rubble.
Under no circumstances is household trash accepted from other towns; if your town has no transfer station, you'll need private curbside pickup. Non-residents can bring only paid items such as construction debris and scrap metal, and Derry now accepts construction debris from area towns: see the scale house attendant.
Pay in cash or by check, or by Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express with a 2.99% fee ($2.50 minimum). A separate, signed area handles paid items, so expect some lines.
