Williston Dump (CSWD Drop-Off Center, Vermont) — Hours, Fees & Large Loads
Williston's dump is the CSWD Drop-Off Center at 1492 Redmond Road, the Chittenden Solid Waste District's largest site, open Tuesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
It takes the widest range of materials and the biggest loads, with trailers and dump bodies allowed. Trash runs from $4 for a bag up to 18 gallons to $48 a cubic yard, plus $1 a visit.

From CSWD's fee schedule; the $1 facility fee started July 1, 2026. Blue-bin recycling is free (up to a cubic yard) when you bring at least 18 gallons of trash, or $2 without it; food scraps up to 30 gallons are free with trash. TVs, computers, monitors and printers are free under Vermont's E-Cycles program, up to seven items. Single bulky items are priced by the attendant. CSWD takes cash, checks and cards (3% card fee).
Williston is the only CSWD drop-off center that lists drywall and OSB and plywood, and it takes mattresses, box springs and large appliances too. For loads too big for a drop-off center, the private Casella transfer station next door on Redmond Road takes large loads of trash; CSWD doesn't set its prices.
Paint thinners, pesticides, pool chemicals and other household hazardous waste go to the CSWD Environmental Depot at 1011 Airport Parkway in South Burlington, by appointment, Wednesday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Motor oil and filters, fluorescent bulbs and mercury thermostats are also taken in small amounts at every drop-off center except Burlington.
Vermont bans a long list of things from household trash and landfills: car batteries and waste oil (since 1990), large appliances and paint (1991), tires (1992), mercury products, TVs, computers and other electronics (2011), recyclables (2015), leaves, yard debris and clean wood (2016) and food scraps (2020). Everything else ends up at the state's only operating landfill, in Coventry.
