Hazardous waste

The official Transfer Station page says a household hazardous waste day is scheduled in Windsor once a year, and that Windsor residents can take part in any sponsored collection held in any of the listed towns if that day is not convenient. The official page also links a Paint Recycling Program for paint that is recyclable at the Transfer Station. Used motor oil is listed as no charge at the Transfer Station.

Holiday closures

The official Transfer Station page says the facility is closed on New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, President's Day, Saturday before Easter, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving and Christmas, and that it closes early on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Those official lists do not attach years or 2026 calendar dates. Confirm with the Transfer Station at (860) 285-1833 before a holiday week, and ask how early the Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve closes are, because the official page does not print those early-close times.
