A question for cottage owners

Our family recently purchased a cottage on the southern end of the lake near Rossie. We have been taking our trash home will us for removal. Is there a place we could take it to locally? I would rather pay a little extra to drive it someplace close then riding with it in our vehicle for five hours. :?:

I have been coming to Black Lake for over 50 yrs. I know of no place to rid of one's trash. Would recommend checking around Rossie for possible disposal or even a nominal fee service. I commend you though on taking your trash home for disposal. If everyone removed their trash that they bring up to their camps then maybe we woldn't be seeing the beer cans, soda bottles , plastics etc etc floating around the lake as we do from time to time. Good luck in your endeavor. Catch & Release!

We have a place in rossie.there is a private guy that picks up during the week.A local has a key to our garage and we put the garbage in there and he puts it out on pick up day.We pay the cost and a little to make it worth his while.There used to be a dump station in Gov.Rt. 11 just out side the town

The station on rt11 just north of gov. is still open. Since you own property you can get a dump pass.

Minimum Charge at transfer station is $15.00. The bag idea might be your way to go if you don't have too much trash. Their website has the hours, locations and prices posted on it. http://www.co.st-lawrence.ny.us/Departments/SolidWaste/

The number to the garbage place that picks up for us in Rossie is 315-286-0354. I think it is like $3.00/bag, better than 5 hours in the car!
