The only listed route: the Transfer Station
The 2026-2027 guide puts trees under Yard Waste: Grass, Leaves and Christmas Trees, one of the recycling items covered by a sticker or the $10 entry. Residential leaves and grass are free; the guide does not give a tree-specific fee, so check at the gate. The load limit is a one-ton truck bed sized load. Cash or check only.
We found no curbside tree pickup, no drop-off dates and no rule about stands, tinsel or bags on the town pages. The town has not posted 2026-27 tree dates; call the DPW at 774-801-0520 and ask.
Dates that matter this winter
Station hours are Saturday through Wednesday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.. The closed-holiday list includes Christmas Day, New Year's Day and Martin Luther King Day, and the station is closed every Thursday and, outside the summer Friday window, every Friday. Friday opening in 2026 ran July 3 to September 11 and has ended.
Real trees, cottage tenants and flat-price pickup
Owners who close a cottage for the winter may still have a tree to move in December, and renters who leave in January often do not. We take a tree from the porch, the living room or the yard: one tree with a few boxes sits at the $159 minimum, and a quarter trailer at $209 also covers wreaths, lights and holiday boxes. No travel fee, any day of the week.
