The following is from the Stoughton DPW:

On Thursday, July 4th, there will be no curbside trash collection in observance of Independence Day. 

Trash collection for Independence Day will be scheduled for Friday, July 5th in addition to the regular Friday collection. This is standard procedure for any holiday.


All rubbish and recyclables must be curbside by 7 a.m. on your collection day.  

Recyclables are to be separated as follows: (1) Commingled containers (glass, plastic, aluminum cans, and aluminum foil) and (2) curbside newsprint (newspapers, cardboard boxes, brown paper bags, magazines, phone books, inserts).

The DPW is now able to pick up tubeless TVs and computer monitors with curbside trash but older TVs and computer monitors with tubes (CRTs) cannot be picked up curbside and must be brought to the transfer station.

Large household appliances (metal items) must be called into the Public Works for appointment for pickup. 


The Transfer Station is open every SUNDAY from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.


Feel free to call the DPW office if you have any questions (781- 344-2112).
