Waste Facility

Westminster Department of Public Works

2 Oakmont Ave, Westminster, MA 01473

(978) 874-5572

Small municipal transfer station serving Westminster residents for household trash and recycling drop-off. Locals use it for weekend cleanups, bulky items, and routine loads from the neighborhood.

Pull into a paved drive where there's typically a small entrance booth and a scale near the driveway, so expect to stop briefly. The site looks like a working yard - roll-off containers, piles of material, and a few traffic lanes to follow. Recycling in Massachusetts is strict, so bring materials already separated the way the state requires and watch for signs listing banned items. Weekends, especially in spring and early summer, often have lines and slower traffic through the lanes.

Before You Go

  • Sort paper, plastics, glass and metal before getting to the gate to speed things up and avoid unloading twice.
  • Cover loose or dusty loads with a tarp and secure everything for the short drive in - it keeps the truck cleaner and saves time at the drop-off area.
  • Plan to arrive early on Saturdays and Sundays if possible; weekday afternoons tend to be quieter when local schedules allow.
