Snow Headed Our Way

Well the snow season is officially being reigned in as the forcast is calling for a snow storm starting Saturday evening. The forcast calls for 6-12 inches of total accumulation and high winds to go along with the flurry.

If you lack four wheel drive this will be your opportunity to go out and get those last minute snow removal items before they are all gone. Ice melters are usually the biggest challenge, no one seems to want them until the ground is iced over then they dissappear from store shelves en-masse.

Please drive carefully, keep your cars out of snow removal zones and enjoy any holiday parties you might be attending.

Hours Changing At Milford Transfer Station

This Saturday will be the last Saturday trash can be dropped at the Milford Transfer station. Town officials have approved a measure that will suspend the plants extended hours effective December 19th, 2009.

Anyone who has to work during the week should consider taking advantage of this Saturday as your last opportunity to "clean house" of all your bulk waste and unwanted items.

The new schedule is 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., weekdays (closed noon to 12:30 p.m. for lunch) and 7 a.m. to noon, Saturdays.

The transfer station is open to Milford residents and commercial haulers. All guests are asked to present their vehicle registration at the gate. Milford residents are permitted to use the facility for free, commercial vehicles with either commercial or combination plates must pay to dispose of their trash. Hazardous waste is prohibited, and a call should be made to the MTS in the event you are uncertain.

The transfer station is located on Oronoque Rd. in Milford, CT. They can be reached by clicking HERE.
