It's one hell of a transfer station! What can you say!

This is the only transfer station I've had to go to in my life. You can bring just about anything here, just read the website info first. If you are new to Hingham, don't believe the hype. Yes, the town is serious about recycling but no one is out there checking your bags etc. It is an honor system and you are expected to do your best. The only shortfall is that the parking for the bulk of the recyclables is small and this section is right near the entrance so it gets backed up sometimes but the line moves pretty well.
