Junk removal in Truro, MA
NO SURPRISES.

How trash and bulky items work in Truro
A permit is required to enter the Transfer Station, and the town reads license plates at the gate rather than handing out stickers: physical stickers will no longer be distributed. Station staff run it for the DPW at 115 Route 6; the phone is 508-349-6339.
The town pages describe two routes for household trash, your own trip to the station or a private subscription hauler. They post no town bulky pickup. Bulky items are charged at the gate, and the August 2025 fee schedule lists $50 per item for soft furniture, box springs and mattresses, $25 for a TV or computer monitor and $30 for white goods and other large metal objects.
The station is Truro's own. The Board of Health regulations say all waste brought to the Transfer Station shall originate within the Town of Truro, so it is not shared with Provincetown, which runs a separate station on Race Point Road.
Truro and North Truro, and who can get a permit
The town website puts the Community Center at 7 Standish Way in North Truro, ZIP 02652, while Town Hall and the Transfer Station use Truro, 02666. Both are one town with one Transfer Station, one permit system and one set of rules.
Owners and occupants can get permits. Weekly permits are valid for seven days and the fee schedule lists weekly $30 and monthly $55 seasonal permits. An occupant needs a lease or the owner's written permission, a vehicle registration and a driver's license. The town's rental bylaw also says tenants of registered rentals are eligible for transfer-station stickers at non-resident rates.
That makes a Saturday changeover or a cottage closing tricky to do yourself. JUNKRUN carries the load out and hauls it, so you need no Transfer Station permit for our visit.
What JUNKRUN charges in Truro
Prices are the same in every town we serve. A pickup is priced by the space it fills in the trailer: quarter load $209, half $319, three-quarter $409, full $519, with a $159 minimum. Single items are priced separately: sofa $139, queen mattress $109, small appliance $79.
We carry from basements, sunrooms and outdoor sheds, and we take what the station will not: wooden furniture is on the station's refused list, and so is demolition debris. Book by calling or sending a photo. Pay JUNKRUN by card, Zelle or Venmo.

The town's rental registration bylaw covers residential rentals of 120 days or fewer and says summer homes are its principal subject, and short-term rentals carry a 2026 permit fee that includes an inspection.
- Seasonal notes
- The Transfer Station posts a summer schedule (daily from June 10 to September 10, 2026) and a winter one (Friday through Tuesday, closed Wednesday and Thursday, per the page's schedule through June 9, 2026). The town page lists no hours after September 10, 2026, so call before an autumn or winter trip.

Street placement of building rubbish needs a Building Commissioner permit under General Bylaw 1-9-12.
