The Wallingford Selectboard recently agreed to allow Music Mountain Compost to provide composting services at the Wallingford Transfer Station on Waldo Lane. This new service scheduled to start October 16, 2024 allows residents to compost food waste including bones, compostable bags, compostable utensils and liners. If you have any questions, ask Jerry or Art at the transfer station.

Transfer station employees would like to remind Wallingford residents Zero Sort can only accept cardboard 36 inches or less. Larger than 36 inches clogs up the unit. Transfer station employees would appreciate it if residents cut down cardboard to the appropriate size before you arrive at the facility as it will help operations flow smoothly and employees are not given that task.

Your cooperation  is very much appreciated.
