Located in the southwestern corner of the state, Hinsdale was chartered in 1753. It was named for Colonel Ebenezer Hinsdale. Col. Hinsdale served as chaplain at Fort Dummer, an important trading post on the Connecticut River, later enlisting as an officer in the army. Then, in 1742, he established Fort Hinsdale. Settlers came from Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut to homestead. A number of farms grew up along the Connecticut River near the confluence of the Ashuelot River. The area had been a favorite of the Native Tribes that inhabited the region.

Welcome to the newly improved Transfer Station starting July 1st 2024!

When you arrive, you will have two options. If you have items for recycling, just turn right and proceed to the back of the Transfer Station. Recycling is free of charge, which is great news! If you don't have any recycling, don't worry. Just drive over to the scale on the left, where an attendant will weigh your waste and direct you to the appropriate disposal area. Once you have disposed of your waste, head back to the scale to pay the attendant. A dump sticker will still be required for a $5.00 fee.

As part of a $100 million InvestNH initiative, the Town of Hinsdale is participating in the Community Housing Navigator program. This program is intended to help New Hampshire communities understand and address their housing needs at a time when the state is experiencing record low-vacancy rates and an acute shortage of available and affordable housing. This is a community-driven process that starts with communication. Please take a moment to complete this Housing Needs Survey. The quality of this effort is largely determined by the level of participation from the community. Thank you for your time and interest!
