Yard debris removal prices in Southington
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.
Leaves and brush are accepted at the station within the burnable size limits, while grass clippings and hay are refused.
City cost & eligibility
Entry needs a current town pass, and the permit price is set at the Revenue Office when the pass is issued, so confirm the cost there.
When & how
Take yard material to the station on a Saturday between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep logs, sticks, brush, shrubs and small root masses within four feet in length and six inches in diameter, keep stumps and logs over six inches out of the load, and leave grass clippings and hay behind because the station refuses them.
Material goes into the designated burnable, demolition, metal and miscellaneous categories, and all demolition material stays separate from everything else. Household garbage, cardboard, bags, tires, grass clippings and every other prohibited item stay out of the load.
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.
Town of Southington Highway and Parks Department, Bulky Waste Transfer Station
Annual transfer station pass
A Southington household that expects to use the bulky waste station more than once in the year.
Cost & conditions
The pass price is set when the permit is issued, so ask the Revenue Office for the current amount.
Arrange it
Go to the Revenue Office in Town Hall at 75 Main Street with a Connecticut driver's licence and the vehicle registration, or use the town's mail-in permit form.
The 2026 pass replaced the pass that expired on March 31, 2026, so a vehicle without the current sticker is not admitted, and the sticker must be fixed to the windshield rather than carried.
Sorted bulky material in four streams: burnable logs, sticks, brush, shrubs, small root masses, carpeting, lumber, wood fencing, wood deck material and furniture; non-burnable demolition material such as sheet rock, plaster, asphalt material, roofing, tile and concrete under six inches; metal including mowers, bicycles, storm doors, railings, pipe and appliances; and miscellaneous leaves and brush, household electronics, fluorescent lights, batteries and mattresses.
A current town pass affixed to the windshield is required for entry, a licence or vehicle registration is presented for residency verification, no waste generated outside Southington is accepted, demolition material has to be kept separate, and the guide refuses garbage, cardboard, drums, paint cans, stumps and logs over six inches, rocks and concrete over six inches, liquid and industrial waste, tires, hazardous, radioactive and infectious waste, motor vehicles, explosives, grass clippings and hay, bags whether empty or full, papers, books, magazines, boats and campers. Anything that fits in a thirty gallon barrel does not belong at the station.
Saturdays only, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The town publishes a separate 2026 schedule document for holiday closures, on 617 Old Turnpike Road.
Entry is by town permit and the permit prices are set at the Revenue Office rather than published on the pages, so confirm the current amount when the pass is issued.
Transfer station permits, oversize vehicle permits and one-day passes, issued in person or by mail.
The office issues the permits but does not operate the station, and questions about rules, hours and what is allowed go to the Highway and Parks Department. A commercial vehicle or anything larger than a three-quarter ton standard pickup needs an inspection at the Highway Department before a sticker is issued.
Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with extended hours on Thursdays until 7 p.m.
The permit and pass prices are set when the permit is issued, so ask the office for the current amount.
