Make the trip before the holiday gap
Eastham’s transfer station will close on Wednesday, November 11, for Veterans Day and reopen Saturday, November 14, according to the town’s October 16 notice. Residents who normally make a Wednesday drop-off should choose another operating day that week.
The Solid Waste Division lists regular hours of 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday through Wednesday, with Thursday and Friday closed. Read together, the holiday notice and weekly schedule mean there is no scheduled transfer-station visit on November 11, 12 or 13. Recheck the town notice before loading a vehicle.
Separate a drop-off from a sticker-office visit
The station requires an annual sticker or an entry fee. The town’s information page lists the transfer station at 255 Old Orchard Road and the sticker office separately at 555 Old Orchard Road, across the parking lot from Public Works.
The sticker office’s posted schedule is Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., excluding holidays. Its payment arrangements also differ: the station’s page says cash or check, while the sticker office lists cards with a finance fee. Check the instructions for the service you need rather than treating both offices as one stop.
For sticker questions, the town lists 508-240-5974. For Public Works enquiries, it lists 774-801-0520. The closure notice concerns the transfer station; it does not announce a town-wide collection schedule.
