Having a recycle center that takes many items not accepted in the curbside program is tremendously helpful in reusing these resources rather than sending them to the landfill! All but one Mass. landfill is scheduled to close by 2025, & we already send our trash as far as MI & AL. The recycle center takes a variety of items NOT accepted in the curbside bin including: scrap metal, plastic bags, compact fluorescent bulbs, bulky plastics, non alkaline batteries, items with mercury (thermostats / thermometers) ... https://www.cambridgema.gov/services/recyclingcenter Additional Recycle Options: Staples offers $5-10 reward credit for tech items (computers, printers, phones, & much more) & $2 for ink cartridges. Target also accepts the above items, and offers car seat recycling twice a year w/ incentives. Plastic bags/films are accepted at Star Market, & Whole Foods accepts some plastic bags/films & wine corks. Home Depot & Lowes: Compact fluorescent lights (CFLs), rechargeable batteries, cell phones, plastic bags. Lowes also takes plastic planter pots. Diaper drop off at Wix offices and Centers for Children & Families - bags may be open.

Was looking for options to dispose of tile, drywall, and an old vanity from a bathroom remodel…read more Went through all of the junk removal businesses and found no quotes for less than $200. I thought I could do a bit better. I found James G Grant and figured I'd give it a shot. It's a bit intimidating at first given the visuals-- heavy machinery everywhere, large piles of all different materials, etc. but folks were happy to help. This is one of the places where all of the commercial junk removal businesses bring their materials and then do a healthy up-charge for the convenience. I went in to the office, asked for what the process was and was told to drive on to the scale. Once the weight registered, I got a thumbs up and then followed the One Way signs to the dumping area for construction materials. I backed in, dumped everything, and then back to the scale. Drove through the scale again, another thumbs up, and then parked and went to the office for payment. The price was very reasonable. Only about $60. The entire process took maybe 15 minutes. I was very happy with the experience and highly recommend if people in the Boston area have to dispose of larger materials and have a means to transport them.

The truck drivers are friendly, and hard working. My main issue with them is their billing practices. They never tell you this, but they will charge $100 for a failed drop. If you need to tow parked cars, $100 an hour. If you tell them to come back after you have cleared the space, $100. They will just charge your card without another word, which is a very frustrating business practice.
