Holiday closures

The official Transfer Station flyer says the bulk-trash portion closes for the winter on the Saturday prior to Christmas and reopens on the first Thursday of April, and it adds winter bulk-trash hours on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays January through March. A second official Recycling Center News flyer says the Rubber Avenue Recycling Center is open year-round Thursday and Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., with the bulk-trash portion closed in winter, and it also describes that bulk portion as closing mid-December and reopening late March. Both official seasonal descriptions are shown; confirm the current bulk-area calendar with Public Works at (203) 720-7071 before late December.
