Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Blandford Landfill on Huntington Road is where local trash is buried rather than sorted or transferred. Locals and haulers from nearby towns bring loads here, though fees and exactly what’s accepted depend on state and town rules and can vary.
Expect a booth and a scale when pulling in, so plan to stop for weighing. Drive up to the working face or tipping area past the scale; the site is large with dirt roads, compacted mounds, and heavy equipment moving around. Bring time for unloading - weekends and spring cleanup days often have lines and delays. Weather matters here: rain turns the access roads muddy and slows everything down.

Before You Go
- Cover and tie down loads to keep debris off Huntington Road and make the drive in and out cleaner.
- Sort materials by type (brush separate from bulky items, for example) before getting there to speed up unloading.
- Try for early weekday mornings to avoid the weekend backlog, and leave extra time during spring cleanup season.
