Tranfer station day

Here in Groton we do not have a "dump", instead we transport our trash to other towns. We do not have curb side pick up (you can pay for a private company) instead you have to get it to the transfer station on your own. The town has two ways to generate money for this service:
1) you pay for a yearly sticker
2) you have to throw non-recyclables into orange bags that cost extra money.
This process is not that bad and I really do not mind it. It really gives a good incentive for recycling and also penalizes people by trash volume.

As you can see from this photo, this was a large trip. I cleaned the basement and found junk I did not know I had.
