Yard debris removal prices in New Milford
First item / additional item
Contractor bag$69 / $20
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Brush and leaves are not on the centre's fee schedule. The page routes them to New Milford Farms for a fee and tells residents to call for the details, so the town's yard route runs through that site rather than the transfer station.
City cost & eligibility
The centre lists brush and leaves as material taken to New Milford Farms for a fee without publishing the amount, so confirm the price and the drop-off details on (860) 210-0250 before a trip.
When & how
By arrangement with New Milford Farms on (860) 210-0250, rather than at the transfer station counter.
Get it ready
Call New Milford Farms before loading, because the centre's own schedule does not price brush or leaves and the fee is set there. Keep yard material out of the transfer station bulky load and out of the household waste bands, and remember the centre's size limits apply to woody material it does take: no dimensional lumber longer than six feet and fencing cut to four feet or less.
The centre's schedule does not price brush or leaves, and the page routes them to New Milford Farms for a fee with a phone number for the details. That makes the yard route a separate arrangement rather than a transfer station drop-off.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Take brush and leaves to New Milford Farms
A household with brush or leaves that the centre does not price.
Cost & conditions
The centre states that brush and leaves can be taken to New Milford Farms for a fee without publishing the amount, so confirm the price and the drop-off details on (860) 210-0250.
Arrange it
Call New Milford Farms, confirm the fee and the drop-off arrangements, and deliver the material there rather than to the centre.
A fee applies, the centre itself does not price the material, and the yard material still has to be kept out of the bulky load and the household waste bands.

Household waste is weighed in bands from $3 to $9.

Can you pick up a loose pile of branches or yard waste?+
Contact our team for a custom quote. Text a photo of the whole pile, its approximate dimensions, your ZIP code and a view of the pickup access. We confirm the scope, price and scheduling before you book.
Can I book regular paper yard bags?+

Can I arrange same-day pickup?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Checkout shows the available dates for your address. Your booking is for a pickup day, rather than an exact arrival window. We send updates and photos after collection.
Where should I put my items?+
Use an accessible outdoor spot you are allowed to use, and follow the instructions in your confirmation. Keep sidewalks, entrances and vehicle access clear. You arrange any indoor carrying. For a loading dock or a short building access window, confirm the setup with our team before booking.
