Hazardous waste
The official Transfer Station information PDF says the station does not accept propane tanks or hazardous waste, including oil-based paints, gasoline, thinners, medical waste, and unused chemical cleaners, and that an annual Hazardous Materials Collection Day is usually held in the fall. No 2026 date for that event appears on the fetched official pages. Used motor oil is listed as accepted at the Transfer Station in that official PDF. The official electronics drop-off list also says smoke detectors, ballasts, propane tanks, paint, lighter fluid, liquids, household hazardous waste, and Freon appliances are not accepted in the electronics program.
Holiday closures
No dated Transfer Station holiday-closure list appears on the fetched official Public Works, Trash and Recycling, or Transfer Station information pages. The official 2026 Holiday Delays section on the Trash and Recycling page describes curbside pickup delays only (when a pickup holiday falls Monday through Thursday, pickups on and after the holiday are one day late for the rest of that week) and was not applied as Transfer Station hours. Confirm with Public Works at (203) 736-5945 or the scale operator at (203) 922-3111 or (203) 922-3112 before a holiday week.

Other notes
- Facts from the official City of Ansonia Public Works and Trash and Recycling pages and the official Ansonia Public Works Transfer Station information PDF, fetched November 12, 2026.
- Access to the Public Works complex is through the entrance gate located directly past the HMP Industries building on North Division Street. Official typo in the Transfer Station information PDF: "The Ansonia Transfer Station is location on North Division Street."
- Official conflict on refrigerators and air conditioners: the official no-charge list includes refrigerators and air conditioners, while the official free electronics-recycling section says appliances containing Freon (air conditioners, refrigerators, dehumidifiers) are not accepted in that electronics program. Both official statements are shown; confirm at the scale.
- Public Works has a mattress recycling container; mattresses cannot go in bulky waste. Call (203) 736-5945 before bringing a mattress to make sure there is room.
- The official disposal-fee table also has heading rows for Bulk items and Construction material with no fee printed next to those headings; those fees were not invented here.
- (203) 736-5945 is the main Public Works number. The scale operator numbers are (203) 922-3111 and (203) 922-3112.
