Estate and summer-home cleanouts in Mashpee

Who can use the Mashpee Transfer Station for a cleanout

Permits are sold to Mashpee residents and residential property owners only, so the owner of a Mashpee house qualifies even if they live elsewhere. The brochure also lets residents, property owners or visitors buy a single-trip pass. That is $25 and a 5-bag limit with $3 for each extra bag. When the house is still titled to an estate, the pages do not say who qualifies; ask the Town Clerk at 508-539-1400 ext. 8418 before the first trip.

The brochure defines household trash as trash generated by the day-to-day activities of a household, and the station accepts household trash only. A cleanout of a full house is a lot of bags and, at $3 each past five, adds up faster than a trailer.

What costs extra, and what has no town option

At the gate: mattresses and box springs $30 each, white goods $10, electronics $10, TVs $10 to $50 by size, and furniture $2 to $15 by type. Clean, dry textiles and books are accepted without a listed fee: the town's textile page says clean and dry textiles can be recycled at the Transfer Station. Scrap metal is free.

No town option: construction and demolition, which includes lumber and flooring from a remodel done to sell the house; oil-based paint, pesticides and solvents, which have free county collection Saturdays only (the 2026 season has ended; 2027 dates post in spring); and brush larger than 6 inches. The Transfer Station is closed Monday and Tuesday.

A cleanout plan that works in Mashpee

Work in the order of what has value. Walk through with family and set aside what stays. Give gently used furniture and household goods to ReStore Cape Cod in Falmouth, which accepts new and gently used items in excellent condition and schedules free pickups; staff may decline on inspection. Paper shredding was free at the August 22, 2026 collection event; the town has not posted a 2027 date. Then haul the rest.

JUNKRUN works by trailer space: a quarter trailer $209, a half $319, three-quarters $409, a full trailer $519, $159 minimum, no travel fee. We carry from attics, basements and sheds, and take mattresses, couches and appliances in the same visit. Text photos of each floor and we confirm the load size before the day.
