How Eastham handles trash and bulky items
The town's pages send everything to one place: the Transfer Station at 255 Old Orchard Road, open Saturday through Wednesday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The 2026-2027 guide adds Fridays in summer only (this year July 3 to September 11) and lists 13 closed holidays, including Veterans Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. The gate takes cash or check only.
To use it you need a sticker or you pay at the gate: $10 per visit covers recycling and up to three 32-gallon trash bags. Anything bulky is charged per item on the fee sheet. The town publishes no curbside trash or bulky route, so for pickup at the house you hire a private hauler. Commercial haulers need an annual Board of Health license.
Who can buy a sticker, including cottage owners and renters
The Board of Health regulation lets Eastham residents, non-resident taxpayers, businesses and other persons visiting the Town use the station. A sticker is proven with a vehicle registration plus an address on a tax bill, a lease or a seasonal rental agreement. The first residential sticker is $140 and the second is $35 for 2026-2027. The Sticker Office at 555 Old Orchard Road is open Monday to Friday 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.; call 508-240-5974 or 774-801-0519.
A rental guest or a one-time cleanout skips the sticker and pays the entry fee. That fee does not cover a mattress, a sofa or a refrigerator, which the fee sheet charges separately. Our dump page and the item pages list each fee.
Where a flat-price pickup fits
A mixed pile is where the station gets awkward: a mattress, a recliner, a grill and a dozen bags is a separate fee line and a separate bin for each. JUNKRUN prices by space in the trailer. A quarter is $209, a half $319, three-quarters $409 and a full trailer $519, with a $159 minimum, the same in every town and no travel fee. We carry from basements, sheds and second floors, so you do not have to stage anything at the end of a sandy driveway.
Call the DPW at 774-801-0520 if you need to confirm a fee, a hazardous item or a holiday closure before you decide.

What a pickup in Eastham looks like.
- Where
- Eastham is a Barnstable County town on the Lower Cape, with Route 6 (State Highway) running through it; the Town Hall complex is at 2500 State Highway. Its land area is 13.97 square miles, and the Cape Cod National Seashore borders parts of town. JUNKRUN is based in Melrose and serves it.
- County and population
- Barnstable County. 5,752 residents (2020 U.S. Census (Census Bureau QuickFacts for Eastham town, Barnstable County)).
- Neighborhoods
- North Eastham, Rock Harbor, Nauset, Old Town Center
- Homes
- Census QuickFacts for 2020-2024 shows an owner-occupied housing unit rate of 87.9 percent, a median owner-occupied home value of $732,200 and 1.91 persons per household, with 40.9 percent of residents 65 or older (2025 estimate). The town's zoning bylaw regulates cottage colonies, motels and inns alongside one- and two-family districts, and its Health Department registers every rented property each year. Cleanouts here are often a full house, a cottage or a rental unit.
- Seasonal notes
- Fall and winter are quiet on the Cape and the transfer station keeps a fixed Saturday-to-Wednesday schedule year-round, with an added Friday only in summer. Leaves and grass go to the station in season; the town posts no curbside leaf or tree route.
- Access and parking
- Most homes sit on sandy driveways off Route 6 and side roads with scrub oak and pine; there is no town curbside trash pickup listed, so items are carried to the transfer station at 255 Old Orchard Road or hauled by a private hauler licensed by the Board of Health. The town publishes no dumpster permit rule, so call the Health Department at 508-240-5900 ext. 3230 or the DPW at 774-801-0520 before placing a container on a public way.
