Bulky item disposal in Harwich, MA

The per-item schedule at the station

The town's fee schedule, checked Nov 2026, groups bulky items by price:

Wood, shingles and other building debris go to the C&D pad at $205 a ton, and metal at $60 a ton. The pages do not say where a dresser, a desk or a bookcase falls, so call the station before you load.

Getting through the gate

The station is open seven days a week from 8am to 4pm, 362 days a year and is closed Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. Most visitors hold a sticker tied to a vehicle registration. The fee schedule lists a $10 "No Sticker Fee" per trip, but it does not say which loads qualify, so ask when you call 508-430-7558.

The town sells stickers at Town Hall Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and online. A mailed form takes a check only and a copy of each vehicle registration.

Nothing on the pages mentions bulky-item sign-ups, so plan on loading it yourself.

When a flat price beats three trips

A cottage clean-out rarely has one kind of item. A hauled load might be a dresser, a bookcase, two chairs, a treadmill and boxes. At the station that is several fee lines and all the lifting. The Treasure Chest refuses large or heavy furniture, so reuse is not an answer for the heavy pieces.

JUNKRUN prices by the load: a quarter trailer $209, a half $319, three-quarters $409, a full trailer $519, minimum $159. We carry out of basements, porches and sheds in any of the seven villages. No travel fee. Text a photo and we send a flat price before anyone drives over.

Taking bulky items to the Harwich station, step by step

  1. Sort by fee line

    Group items the way the fee schedule does: $5, $10, $15 and $30 each, then construction debris and metal by the ton.

  2. Check what you hold

    The Transfer Station takes a resident sticker ($200) or a non-resident sticker ($275), or lists a $10 per-trip fee. Registration is needed to buy a sticker.

  3. Ask about any piece not listed

    Dressers, desks and shelving are not named on the fee schedule. The station line is 508-430-7558.

  4. Load and drive to 209 Queen Anne Road

    Open daily 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mattresses, unusable furniture and building debris go to the C&D pad south of the Transfer Station.

  5. Or skip the trip

    Text JUNKRUN a photo for a flat price and pick a day. Pay by card, Zelle or Venmo.
