Local services and rules

Moving to Sandy Hook: who to call and what the city asks.

Household garbage at the Newtown Transfer Station must go in the town-issued blue bags, the only garbage bags allowed there. A permit is required to use the station, and a license and car registration must be shown. Sandy Hook is a village in the town of Newtown, in Fairfield County, and the offices below are the town of Newtown's.

Transfer Station hours, bulky waste and debris

The Transfer Station is open Tuesday through Saturday, 7am to 3:00pm. Bulky waste is accepted there from Newtown residents with a valid permit, so a resident clearing out a home before a move needs the permit first.

Construction and demolition debris is not covered by the Transfer Station permit. That category is defined as fencing, dimensional lumber, plywood, drywall, shingles or roofing material, and a tile vanity, sink or toilet. Concrete, mortar, brick and blocks are not accepted at the station at all.

Sewer, water and property tax bills from one office

The Tax Collector office bills and collects sewer and water use charges. The same office bills and collects property and personal property taxes, so a new household deals with one office for both kinds of bill. The Water Pollution Control Authority oversees the Newtown sewer system and the water system on the Fairfield Hills property.

Newtown Public Schools enrollment

New students register online with Newtown Public Schools, then bring the required enrollment documents to the child's school. Proof of residency for enrollment is one current utility bill (electric, gas or landline telephone), plus further documents that depend on whether the family owns or rents the home.

C. H. Booth Library and voter registration

C. H. Booth Library is at 25 Main Street in Newtown and serves the town and surrounding community. The town registrars of voters administer elections for Newtown, including Sandy Hook.
