East Windsor Public Works at 25 School St is the town spot where residents bring their household trash and other municipal disposals. It’s a small, practical site used mostly by locals for routine drop-offs rather than big commercial loads.
Pull in to a narrow drive and expect a small entrance booth and an open tipping area where vehicles line up; many Connecticut transfer facilities use a scale, so be prepared for a brief stop when you come and again when you leave. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so traffic can move slowly. Recycling containers are usually grouped off to one side and bulky items sit out on the pavement for pickup, so having things separated before getting to the gate speeds things up.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have a town transfer station permit or proof of residency ready - many towns in Connecticut require them.
- Avoid weekend mornings if possible; midweek or later afternoons are often quicker.
- Load the vehicle so heavy items are easy to unload first and keep recyclables separate to move through the site faster.
