I'm Trashy

[smoterh.livejournal.com]

I'm doing some remodeling in my house and have generated a sizable load of debris. I put it in black plastic bags and this morning hauled it to the curb as in my past expierience I've seen everything being hauled away by Somerville trash people. However, it wasn't picked up and I was left a note that construction debris will not be picked up. Period.

The city website however says, that if you have a construction permit, the city will haul your trash.  If not, you have to get a private contractor. I, of course, don't have such permit, but still would like to get rid of the trash.  My Questions:

1. Is there a city dump where I can take this stuff. In other towns where I lived there was a city dump, you'd take your trash there, they'd weigh your car, and you'd pay per pound.

2. If not, are there private companies that will haul trash away. I don't need a dumpster, I just have about 7 construction bags worth of tile and dry wall.

Are there dumps in nearby cities that one can use?

Probably in Charlestown. There are some large waste processing and recycling facilities there. Save that Stuff is at 100 Terminal Street, and FCR of Boston is at 24 Bunker Hill Industrial Park. I don't know if either operate dumps that an individual can use though.
