Henry County Transfer Station in Abbeville is the county transfer station where local residents drop off household trash to be compacted and hauled out to a landfill. It sits on County Rd 86 W and is the closer option for people not wanting to drive all the way to a distant landfill.

This is a working lot with a simple entrance and an attendant booth typical of county-run centers; expect to pull up, stop at a booth or gate, then be directed where to unload. There are heavy equipment areas and large containers or pits where trash gets compacted and staged for transfer trucks. The site looks utilitarian rather than landscaped - gravel or paved driveways, concrete pads, and large metal bins. Busy times can have a few trucks and a line of cars waiting to get in, especially during community cleanup periods.

Before You Go

  • Secure loose trash with a tarp or straps so wind doesn’t scatter debris while driving to or from the site.
  • Sort recyclables or bulky items at home as much as possible; it speeds unloading and keeps things moving for everyone.
  • Try to go midweek or earlier in the morning to avoid weekend lines when many people show up for yard or spring cleanups.
