Central Penobscot Solid Waste
Recycling Center in Corinth, Maine
About This Location
The Central Penobscot Solid Waste Facility at 117 Main St in Corinth is a municipal transfer station and demolition landfill serving residents of Bradford, Charleston and Corinth. It is not a drop-and-go public dump: disposal is paid for with stickers bought at local vendors such as the Bradford General Store and Bradford Town Office. The site handles household trash, single-stream recycling, a compost pile for organic waste, a burn site for clean wood, construction debris like shingles and sheet rock, and electronic hazardous waste including TVs and fluorescent bulbs. There is also a Reuse Barn where salvageable items find a second home. It is open just three days a week, so plan trips around the Wednesday, Friday and Saturday schedule.
