As the snowy season gets under way, New Fairfield officials are offering some reminders to residents. 

Sand/Salt mixture is available at the Drop Off Center. Residents may fill two 5 gallon buckets with sand per storm. The Drop Off Center is open on Saturdays and Tuesdays 8am to 3:45pm, and Thursdays 4pm to 7pm. 

During storms, cars should not be parked on town roads so the plows can clear streets completely.

Mailboxes and posts that receive direct contact from snow removal equipment will be replaced with a standard mailbox and post by calling the Public Works Department at 203-312-5628. The Public Works Superintendent will inspect the damage and replace the mailbox accordingly.
