Recycling Transfer Facility

Small-town recycling center that locals use to drop off household recyclables and bulky items on recycling days. Located on Cedar Street in Cohasset, it mainly handles common curbside-type materials and occasional larger household loads. Massachusetts rules mean things usually need to be separated and certain items are banned, so bring sorted materials.

A modest paved lot with an entrance booth and a scale - many people stop at the booth first and then pull forward to the bins. The recycling bunkers and roll-off areas are off to the right past the entrance, with signage and stacks of containers visible from the road. Expect to stop at the scale on the way out since facilities like this commonly charge by weight. Weekends and spring cleanup days get busy, so lines can form back onto Cedar Street.
