From The City of Stamford
STAMFORD, Conn. — The City of Stamford will hold a storm debris drop-off and disposal event at Scofield Park for Stamford residents on Saturday, August 8 and August 15.
Stamford residents can bring unlimited fallen branches or other storm debris for free disposal at Scofield Park located at Rock Rimmon Road and Scofieldtown Road. This storm debris drop-off and disposal is in addition to residents’ access to Stamford’s Transfer Station, where Stamford residents can dispose of storm debris for free. The Transfer Station is open Monday through Saturday, 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Transfer Station will be open for extended hours — 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. — today through Wednesday, August 12, with the exception of Saturday and Sunday.
The City of Stamford cannot perform curbside pickup for storm debris due to budget cuts approved by Stamford’s Board of Finance and Board of Representatives earlier this year, in response to the economic impact of COVID-19. Stamford’s Office of Operations does not have the necessary workforce or resources available to perform curbside pickup. Stamford residents are advised: do not place storm debris curbside, it will not be picked up.
The Scofield storm debris drop-off and disposal event will take place on Saturday, August 8 and Saturday August 15 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event is for storm debris only. City staff have discretion to turn away commercial vehicles or anyone attempting to dispose of unrelated waste.
