Use Your Telephone to Report Problems, NOT Facebook
If you encounter, witness or hear of a problem that could pose an imminent or immediate threat to public health or safety, please call the appropriate municipal agency on the telephone to report it rather than posting it on Facebook.
As convenient as it is to air your issues, grievances, personal opinions or comments on Facebook, it is not an appropriate means of reporting a problem as the social media is not monitored for work-related issues to be addressed.
The Police Department and Fire Department have 24-hour staffing to address all needs and the Light Company uses a professional answering service and will contact their on-call person for after-hours calls. If you need assistance or need to report a public works issue after normal work hours, you can contact the Hull Police and they will notify our 24-hour on-call person.

Hull Does NOT Have A Yard Waste Site
Many residents in town have used Google to search for ways to get rid of yard waste, some of these searches have turned up an internet post about the Town of Hull opening a yard waste site.
Unfortunately, the internet post is referring to the Town of Hull, WISCONSIN.
We do not have a spot to dispose of this type of waste in Hull, MA. Sorry...

and environmentally sensitive areas first.
Once
these areas have been completed, the sweeper will be focusing on neighborhood
areas and on the secondary roads.
This
year, sweeping will begin in the West Corner / Atlantic Ave neighborhoods and
work toward the Pemberton / Hull Gut area of Town.

weather or other unforeseen issues):
