Sherborn Town Dump on N Main St is the small town dump most Sherborn residents use for routine disposal. It's a compact, no-frills spot - not a big transfer station, just the local place people swing by with household or yard cleanups.
Drive up the short gravel entrance and look for a small booth area and lanes to pull into; things move in a simple flow rather than a maze of buildings. There are open piles and rowed containers rather than enclosed bays, so expect to be outside while unloading. Weekends, and especially spring cleanup weekends, get the longest lines, while weekdays are usually quieter. Bring a tarp or straps for loose loads and be ready to haul items from a truck or trailer down to the drop areas.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort materials into piles or clearly labeled containers in the truck before getting there - it saves a lot of time at the drop spots.
- Wear sturdy shoes and gloves; the ground is often gravel and the drop areas can be messy.
- Try for a weekday or early morning visit if possible; weekend afternoons are the busiest times.
