750 Edgartown Rd, Edgartown, MA 02539

(508) 627-4501

Martha's Vineyard Refuse District in Edgartown is the local place residents use when household trash and bulky items need to be dropped off. Situated just off Edgartown Road, it's the practical spot people from town and nearby communities visit for everyday disposal needs.

Expect a simple transfer-station setup with an entrance lane and a small attendant booth where vehicles pause before entering. There’s usually a scale and a staging area for different loads, with larger containers and compactors visible from the road. Vehicles are directed where to pull up for drop-offs, and the site looks like a working yard-gravel or paved surfaces, rows of bins, and piles behind fencing. Busy times will show a steady line of cars and small trucks, while quieter periods have easy pull-through access.

Before You Go

  • Separate recyclables and other materials ahead of time, since Massachusetts has strict recycling rules and most island facilities expect sorted loads.
  • Bring proof of residency or any required town permit; many island facilities check IDs or stickers at the gate.
  • Avoid late mornings on weekend days if possible-those tend to be the busiest, especially during spring cleanup season.
