NEW FAIRFIELD — The town’s drop-off center on Bigelow Road is available Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays for those that need to dispose of brush.
Residents can dispose of brush, which must be under eight inches in diameter, for free from 8 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on Tuesdays, 4 to 7 p.m. Thursdays and 8 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on Saturdays. Contractors will be charged $10 for a pick-up truck of brush and $20 for a box truck. Wood chips are free. The town is working to get a larger chipper that may be able to accept bigger size brush in the future.
Materials should not be dumped on any other town properties or in the roads. The town will also pick up brush from curbsides, but has not yet determined a date for that pick-up.
Residents should keep all receipts for possible reimbursement through the Federal Emergency Management Agency process.
