The Town of Clifton Park has continued to add convenient services for residents at the Transfer Station. For many years, the town has been on the forefront of offering a collection point for the proper disposal and recycling of electronics. The structure of collecting electronic waste is changing throughout New York State beginning January 1, 2023. It is important to note, the new structure of the collection program ensures the Town is no longer charged for picking up the electronic products. For additional information, please contact the Transfer Station at 371-6669 or Scott Reese at 371-6651.
