A black sign with orange text that reads closed

To comply with the state social distancing order and to minimize possible contamination/exposure to both residents and staff during the COVID-19 outbreak, the South Hadley Transfer Station and the compost area are closed until further notice.

Please DO NOT leave green bags or other items at the gate. Curbside pick-up by Republic Services will continue as scheduled. Contact Republic Services directly to coordinate an additional weekly pick-up and subsequent subscription fee, if needed. Green bags are still required for trash pick-up.  Use this form to report a missed collection or call the DPW at 538-5033.

Leaf-pickup / Household Hazardous Waste Day cancelled: Republic Services, the company with whom the town contracts to provide curbside pick-up, has deemed yard waste pick-up non-essential during this COVID crisis and time for social distancing. Therefore the spring yard waste collection scheduled for April/May in South Hadley has been cancelled. Administration is working on a possible alternative. The South Hadley Household Hazardous Waste Day scheduled for May 9 has been postponed until further notice.
