Watertown Department of Public Works

Small-town transfer station run by the Watertown Department of Public Works, used by residents dropping off household trash and routine recyclables. Folks from Watertown bring carloads, small trailers, and bags here for disposal and sorting.

Expect a compact, functional site with a staffed entrance booth and traffic lanes to pull up and be directed. Many local DPW sites require separating recyclables and have lists of banned items, so there will be areas or containers for different kinds of materials. Vehicles typically drive up to a scale and then to the drop-off spots; plan for a short wait if there’s a weekend rush or spring cleanup. The yard looks like other municipal facilities-paved lots, concrete bunkers or roll-off containers, and clear vehicle flow so a pickup or small trailer can maneuver.
