(413) 498-0099Solid Waste Solutions LLC is Northfield's local spot for dropping off household trash, yard waste, and mixed recycling for residents. People from around town and nearby rural drives bring trailers or pickup loads here on weekends and weekdays. It’s the kind of place used by anyone cleaning out a garage or finishing a landscaping job.
A small entrance booth sits near the driveway where vehicles pause before pulling in; a scale is usually along the drive so vehicles stop twice if loads are weighed. The site has large open piles and roll-off containers, with recycling bins grouped to one side and yard waste piles in another area. Expect a gravel surface and tractor-trailer activity-maneuvering a trailer requires a bit of space and patience. Lines are common during spring cleanups and weekend afternoons, so there can be a short wait before getting to the drop-off points.
