- Recycling Information page lists the same transfer station address (999 West Shore Road, Roslyn) for residential drop-off with proof of residency.
- Some Town navigation pages also mention 802 West Shore Road, Port Washington for directions; use 999 West Shore Road, Roslyn as the residential drop-off address stated on the Recycling Information page, and confirm wayfinding with the Department if needed.
