Toss the Trash on Bulk Drop-Off Days

SOMERS, N.Y. - If you have a two-legged barbecue in the garage or a three-legged chair in the basement now is the time to gather up all that bulky household debris and get it out of your way, for once and for all.

The Somers Sanitation Transfer Station on Route 100, across from the Somers Highway Department, will be collecting household bulk refuse from Saturday, October 15 through Saturday, November 12. 

You must be a Somers resident to participate.

Acceptable items include mattresses, furniture, carpeting, wood, bicycles, and non-commercial construction debris. 

Hazardous or toxic materials must be put aside for Westchester County household chemical clean-up day. The dates for 2012 have not yet been announced.

The charge at the Somers dump will be $15 per car, $20 per minivan, station wagon or SUV, $35 per pickup truck or small van (up to 3 cubic yards), and $76 per ton for a truck larger than a pickup.

Propane tanks no larger than 20 lbs. will be accepted at a $10 fee, refrigerators and air conditioners at $35 with Freon, or $10 without Freon, and you must have a sticker with proof.

The site will be open Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
