MONTICELLO – In order to better accommodate commercial haulers, Sullivan County’s scale at the Monticello Transfer Station will operate on an expanded schedule, starting June 2.

“Our private waste haulers have said they need increased access to our main transfer station, and I’m pleased to say that is about to become a reality,” said District 7 Legislator Joe Perrello, chair of the Legislature’s Public Works Committee. “We’ll be staffing our scale in Monticello a full hour-and-a-half longer Mondays through Fridays, and 45 minutes more on Saturdays.”

Monday through Friday, inbound scale hours will be from 7am-3:30pm (hand-unloaders must be weighed out by 3pm), and Saturday, inbound scale hours will be from 7-11am (bags will be accepted until 1pm).
