The Wellesley Recycling and Disposal Facility is now closed on Sundays, so don’t show up there with a carload of trash and recyclables, because all you will be met with is a locked chain-link gate. Superintendent Jeff Azano-Brown assures us that Dump Sundays will be back in April, but for now he reminds residents to plan accordingly.
After years of maintaining no Sunday hours, Town Meeting members voted last spring to approve Sunday hours, April – November. The money to do so came from savings in the Department of Public Works budget.
So one more time: the dump is now closed on Sundays. Let’s show Supt. Azano-Brown that we will not show up there in total disregard of the extensive signage they’ve had up. At any rate, with the Give and Take area closed until next spring, the dump is currently just as unenchanted as anyplace else. I know it’s tough, but we’ll just all have to find a new Sunday stomping grounds.
The Town needs to use its website to keep the hours, days open/closed, etc. up to date. It’s a crap shoot now on if the dump is open until you drive up to the (usually chained) gates.
