The Rockport Transfer Station turned 40 this year and there is a story of municipal perseverance to tell. The facility is now a smaller version of, but every bit equal to, the best drop off operations in the state. So howâd that happen and whoâs responsible? During the last four decades the public in Rockport deserves and enormous amount of credit. No local service could expect to thrive without itâs customers. Approximately 3,000 households continue to choose to pay a user fee to come into the Transfer Station and that support speaks for itself. Special thanks to those thoughtful people who were kind enough to hand off a cup of coffee or an item of food from time to time. Greatly appreciated.
