The Ft. Totten Transfer Station* will be closed Monday, February 20 and reopen Tuesday, February 21 to residents between 1 pm and 5 pm.
Household Hazardous Waste/E-cycling drop-off is weekly on Saturdays, 8 am to 3 pm. Personal document shredding usually is the first Saturday of the month (except holidays); however due to overwhelming demand February 4 that resulted in some residents having to be turned away, an additional shredding event will be Saturday, February 18, 8 am to 3 pm. DPW will accept no more than the equivalent of 5 boxes – 16.5”x12.5”x8.5”, the approximate size of a box of copy paper – of documents, such as bank statements, credit cards, and pay stubs for shredding from each resident. The next regularly-scheduled shredding drop-off is Saturday, March 4.
Additionally, DPW will conduct a monthly weekday HHW/e-cycling drop-off the Thursday before the first Saturday of each month (except holidays). The next Thursday HHW/e-cycling drop-off is Thursday, March 2, 1 pm to 5 pm. HHW/ E-cycling drop off and document shredding occur at the Ft. Totten Transfer Station.
