In order to reduce costs and continue to offer drop off service to residents of Bridgewater, this site is now being operated by Reliable Wood Products. It is important to note that there continues to be FREE DROP OFF SERVICE to all Bridgewater residents. The few changes to this service are noted below.

• Hours of operation will be expanded as indicated on the signs at the site.
• Contractors and commercial operators may still use the site to drop off material from Bridgewater residents, however, there will be a fee for this service payable by the contractors.
• Mulch can no longer be offered for free but is available for a nominal charge payable to the site operator.
