Norway & Paris Solid Waste is the town’s general solid waste site on Brown Street, used by local residents and nearby towns for dropping off household trash, recyclables, and yard debris. Located in Norway, Maine, it’s the kind of place folks swing by during cleanup days or when the blue bin is full.
Expect a modest, functional facility with a drive-up layout and a small entrance booth where vehicles pause before going in. Recycling containers and piles for brush or leaves are usually set off to one side, with roll-off areas or compactors farther in. Traffic can build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so there may be a short line to get to the drop-off points. Winter conditions affect how the site is arranged, so drive carefully and watch for plowed berms or icy surfaces.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring secured, covered loads-loose trash and leaves can blow out during the short drive from the road to the drop-off area.
- Have things separated as much as possible before getting to the booth so unloading goes quicker; long trucks or trailers take a bit more maneuvering in tight spots.
- Plan for delays on weekends and spring cleanup; arrive with a full tank and patience since space to turn around can be limited.
