The new 2022-2023 transfer station permits will be available for purchase starting Monday, June 21, 2022. The Town Council voted to increase the fee of the permit from $5 to $20 for the 2022-2023 fiscal year in an effort to help offset the rapidly increasing costs of solid waste disposal. The permits this year are designed to allow the Town to write license plate numbers on them. This will allow residents to be able to purchase multiple permits, if they own multiple vehicles. Permits may be obtained at the Transfer Station and the Town Office during regular business hours. The Town is asking you to please bring your vehicle registration with you when you go to purchase a permit so that the town's staff can verify the plate number and residency before issuing a sticker.

Winterport is a small town located in Waldo County, Maine. Incorporated March 12, 1860 and once home to far-ranging sea captains, Winterport retains a 19th century charm that blends well with 20th century conveniences.
Located just 12 miles south of Bangor on Route 1A, Winterport faces the deep and fast-flowing Penobscot River. Older homes, many built for Winterport sea captains, stand along the downtown roadways. Sidewalks encourage people to stroll through the town.
From the historic downtown, where people can find a variety of restaurants and small businesses, visitors can walk the short distance to the Winterport waterfront and watch boats make their way to and from the Penobscot Bay and open waters just beyond.
Winterport is fortunate to have abundant natural resources including the Penobscot River, Marsh Stream, numerous brooks, acres of gravel deposits, rolling hills and hardwood forests. Such abundance allows our hard-working businesses to prosper.
The Union Meeting House, built in 1834, is a special meeting place for townspeople. This building shelters a bell cast by Paul Revere, a belfry clock installed in 1861, and a Masons and Hamlin hand-pumped reed organ installed in 1859. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, the Union Meeting House is the subject of ongoing preservation efforts and local pride.
