Who can use it

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.
