You get the price first; we carry everything out, load it and sort what Massachusetts won't let anyone throw away.

What Bridgewater homes need hauled

Bridgewater is mostly single-family houses (about 61% of homes on the Assessor's 2017 count), plus a real share of condos (about 11%). Roughly 18% of homes were built before 1939, and the biggest building decade was the 1970s, at about 21%. Older houses mean attics and basements with steep, narrow stairs; 1970s houses mean fifty years of storage. Estate cleanouts here are usually both: a full house, emptied before a sale.

The garage is where most jobs start: old mowers, a dead snowblower, a treadmill, a chest freezer, the kids' furniture. The transfer station charges item by item for most of that and refuses some of it, so one cleanout visit usually beats four trips in the car.

Bridgewater is also a university town. Bridgewater State sits in the middle of it, and rentals turn over. Landlords call us when a unit empties and the last tenant left the couch, the mattress and a pile of bags.

The Bridgewater transfer station, bulky items and when to call a hauler

The Town of Bridgewater does not offer curbside trash pickup: you hire a private hauler or use the Transfer Station at 1200 Bedford Street. That takes a vehicle sticker ($50 a year, $25 for residents 65 and over, or a $15 day pass), payment by check or money order only, and a visit on a day it's open (it's closed Wednesday and Thursday). Bulky items are charged one by one: a loveseat runs $40 to $60, a couch $50 to $75, a sectional up to $85, with carpets, heavy metal and other furniture priced by the superintendent.

Massachusetts bans mattresses and textiles from the trash (since November 1, 2022), along with appliances, TVs and monitors, and tires, so these are fee items too: a refrigerator goes in with the doors off for $25, and TVs, computers, mattresses and box springs each have their own line on the chart. We take all of them with the rest of the load and get each to the right recycling stream.

The station won't take asbestos, bricks, concrete, creosote railroad ties, dirt, rocks, stumps, hazardous waste, brush or leaves, and construction debris carries a $200 minimum from January 1, 2026. We don't take hazardous waste or asbestos either; ask the town about its household hazardous waste collection. For a remodel pile, one hauler visit usually beats the minimum plus the loading.
