Transfer Station

Please note: the Transfer Station is closed every Sunday & Monday.  

Effective July 1, 2025, disposal of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries in household trash is prohibited (RSA 149-M:27, II) and the law requires these devices be recycled.  The Derry Transfer Station has a recycle program in place for rechargeable batteries.  Please see attendant for more information.  

As of January 1, 2023 - we are no longer accepting leaves or grass clippings from contractors and landscapers.  This is similar to the brush policy in effect since 2015. Residents are still able to bring these items as long as they are generated from their property here in Derry.  

Only household trash from Derry residents is accepted.  Under no circumstance is household trash accepted from other communities.  If you do not have a Transfer Station in your town, you will need to pay for private curbside trash pickup. 

Mattress policy - effective April 15, 2022, non-residents and commercial haulers are no longer allowed to bring mattresses or box springs due to an upcoming Massachusetts ban on their disposal.   Only Derry residents may dispose of box springs and mattresses. The fee for box springs will remain at $5.00.  Effective July 1, 2022 - the mattress disposal fee increases to $35.00 per mattress.    

Derry residents may bring sofas/chairs.  

Non-Derry residents may only bring items that they pay to dispose of such as C & D, sofas/chairs or scrap metal.  

Mission:
