What that means for you
The transfer station is in the village, so if you have a truck, go there first. It takes old furniture from East Mountain residents, but the page does not spell out how mattresses are handled, so ring before you tie one down.
When the roads turn, or nobody can lift it, call us. Tell us about the driveway and the weather, because a gravel drive that is easy in June may not be in a January thaw.
