DARIEN, CT — Permits for the Darien Recycling and Refuse Center, also known as "the dump," are available now online.

Residents can purchase their permits here beginning May 1. Renewal cards will go out in the mail in early May.

Permits are $150 for residents without a private trash hauler and $50 for residents with regular garbage collection. This is an increase over last year resulting from the costs the town incurs to haul trash out of town.
