The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Stamford collects its own waste rather than franchising it out, so a household deals with the city department on Harbor View Avenue and with three places that take material. The Scale House and Transfer Station on Harborview Avenue takes residential dumping Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m., with up to 200 pounds a day free in a passenger vehicle and 6 dollars and 75 cents charged for each additional 100 pounds. The Katrina Mygatt Recycling Center on Magee Avenue takes recycling, garbage and yard waste Tuesdays through Saturdays, but only from residential passenger vehicles: commercial vehicles, pickups, cars with trailers, rental trucks and combination or commercial plates have to use the Scale House. Large items have their own schedule. The city runs Scofield recycling events at 55 Rock Rimmon Road on published Saturdays, where Stamford residents can bring bulky waste including mattresses, furniture, rugs and small demolition debris, along with electronics, yard waste and textiles, with one load per day capped at 200 pounds and no trailers, rental trucks, commercial vehicles or combination plates. Household hazardous waste moves through the city's sponsored collection days, which rotate between towns and include a Stamford day each summer.
