Most of Barkhamsted is water and trees — the Barkhamsted Reservoir behind Saville Dam, the American Legion and Peoples state forests, and the Farmington River threading the middle with a blue-ribbon trout reputation. The people live in the valleys: Pleasant Valley along the river, and Riverton up at the north end, the old Hitchcock chair village. Housing means 19th-century village houses, river cottages, and hillside homes on wooded acreage — three flavors of the same placement question, which is why our Barkhamsted FAQs start with road width.
Dispatch is from our West Haven yard, Route 8 north and Route 44 in — a bit over an hour. Next-day confirmed windows are the standard; hill-country winters add a morning-of call in the snowy months.
The four prices
$447 / $547 / $647 / $899, sizes 10 through 30/40 yards. The top tier ships as two 20-yard cans — on a narrow river lot, running them in sequence means only one can occupies the driveway at a time. All prices include delivery, pickup, disposal, and 7 days; $15/day extends; the weight terms are in the FAQ above.
River cottages and their renovations
Cottage jobs are volume jobs — paneling, old furniture, decking — and the 15-yard at $547 handles most of them. The exception is anything involving plaster or a full gut of a Riverton village house, where weight climbs and the 20-yard's 4,000-lb allowance earns its extra hundred dollars. Every can is the same physical box; pick the size by the pounds you expect.
Where the can sits
Valley placements need road-width thinking (see the FAQ); hillside placements need firm ground and overhead clearance. We plank wheels off pavement, skip lawn drops in wet stretches, and always prefer to see a photo before committing the truck to a tight river road.
What we can't take — and where small loads go
Concrete, dirt, brick, stumps, and hazardous materials stay out of every can. And if your whole job is one truck bed's worth, ask the town about resident disposal options before paying for a roll-off — the can is for the jobs bigger than that.

What customers in Barkhamsted are saying
Y “Spectacular service, even during Covid! First, a human answered their phone immediately and was clear and courteous. How rare these days! I got an appointment for next day! As promised, received a call that crew was on its way. My mother gave me last minute permission to move a fridge, not part of original request. So I had to tell the poor guys upon arrival that there was a surprise fridge move, two in fact, one removed, one moved within house. Crew didn't flinch. Then one fridge move required its doors AND house door to come off, which they achieved with impressive skill. I'm a manager in my work life and can say their professionalism was superb. Also, important for environment, the company claims to recycle materials. A+ on every level.”
Y “Amazing experience! I would definitely hire them again! Every interaction with this company, from setting up the appointment with Justin, and then having to move it up, because my long distance home movers moved up their delivery day at the last minute, and to the appointment itself, has been a wonderful, and positive experience. When we had to change my delivery window at the last minute, Justin was incredibly helpful and accommodating. And the amazing movers, Eric and Mike, "Big Mike", were so wonderful, professional, helpful, kind, and did excellent work.”
Y “It's spring cleaning time! Who am I going to call? the same great company I called 3 times before...grizzly junk pros! I have found these guys to be experts in moving large bulky items. They are hard workers, honest, fair and extremely efficient. I won't take a chance on any other company because I know what to expect from this one. They've done my cellar, things inside the house and now will call them for cleaning out the attic. The areas I've called them for aren't easy to maneuver in...amazing how they adapt to the job at hand.”
Barkhamsted dumpster rental FAQs
Which parts of Barkhamsted do you deliver to?
All of it — Riverton, Pleasant Valley, and the roads between the reservoirs and the state forest. So much of the town is watershed and forest land that the deliverable addresses cluster along the river valleys, and we know those roads.
How quickly can I get a can?
Next-day, as a confirmed window. Barkhamsted runs a bit over an hour from our West Haven yard — Route 8 to Winsted, then Route 44 down into the valley — which is past the range where same-day talk stays honest.
What are the prices?
$447 for the 10-yard, $547 for the 15, $647 for the 20, $899 for the 30/40 tier — two 20-yard cans, delivered together or in sequence. Delivery, pickup, disposal, and 7 days are included everywhere in town.
My cottage is on a narrow river road — will the truck fit?
Usually, but let's verify. The can is 15 feet long, 8 feet wide — about one parking spot's length — and the roads along the Farmington get narrow. Text photos of the driveway and approach to (203) 219-8855; two minutes of pictures beats a turned-around truck.
What's the weight overage system?
Each size carries an allowance — 1,000 / 2,000 / 4,000 / 6,000 lbs up the ladder. The load gets weighed at a licensed facility; pounds past your allowance bill at $0.10/lb. No estimating, no rounding up.
What does it cost to dump renovation debris at the Barkhamsted transfer station?
Barkhamsted's published rate for residential construction and demolition material (as published September 2026): Scale prices as of July 1, 2026: ‘CONSTRUCTION & DEMOLITION DEBRIS $ 160.00 PER TON’; ‘MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE / OVERSIZED MSW (FURNITURE) $ 160.00 PER TON’; ‘MINIMUM CHARGE $ 7.00’. Clean fill (‘NO METAL / NO SHINGLES’) $ 20.00 PER TON. ‘SCALE OPEN 7:00 AM – 3:00 PM’; ‘YOU MUST SCALE OUT – FAILING TO SCALE OUT MAY RESULT IN A FINE’; ‘PRICES ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE. LOADS ARE SUBJECT TO INSPECTION. PRICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.’ Towns repost these schedules on their own timetable, so check the source link before you budget against it. That's the do-it-yourself route; on our jobs the debris rides out in the can that's already on site, weighed once and billed at our posted rates.
Do I need a permit to use the Barkhamsted transfer station?
Yes — Barkhamsted requires a resident permit for station access, per the town's posted rules. Factor the permit into any DIY disposal math; our trucks don't need one because we don't use the resident line.
