PORTSMOUTH — If you use the transfer station and you haven’t purchased your new 18-month sticker yet, you can get them at the Tax Collector’s office at Portsmouth Town Hall.
The price for access to the Hedly Street or Prudence Island transfer stations from January 2024 to June 30, 2025 is $385 for the first vehicle per household and $10 for one additional vehicle per household. Stickers can be purchased during normal business hours: 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Wednesday; 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Thursday; and 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Friday.
Last year’s transfer station sticker will provide entry into either transfer station until Jan. 31, 2024.
The town continues the pay-as-you-throw (PAYT) program used in conjunction with its transfer stations. All residential household waste must be disposed of in specially marked town-approved bags residents purchase at area stores.
Recycling is disposed of free of charge. Yard waste drop-off, also free of charge, is available from March 15 to Dec. 31. The Hedly Street transfer station offers a wide variety of diversion bins to dispose of various household items, most of which are free.
The application with 2024 rules for each transfer station, FAQs, links, and more can be found here.
Residents may purchase stickers by mail using the application form for the applicable transfer station, which are available on the town’s website and at Town Hall. Instructions and documents needed for mail applications are listed on the application itself. The town is not responsible for lost mail applications.
If you have any sticker questions, call the Tax Collector’s office at 401/683-1214. For PAYT program or recycling questions, e-mail publicworks@portsmouthri.gov or call 401/683-0362.
