On County Road 412 in Hollywood, ScotTransfer Stationboro Landfill is the local transfer station where household loads are compacted on site and then trucked off to a larger landfill. Neighbors with pickups or trailer loads use it when hauling straight to the main landfill isn’t practical.
This is a working, outdoor facility with a simple entrance area and space for trucks to pull up and tip loads. Many transfer stations have a booth and a scale before the drop-off area, and the actual tipping/compaction area is noisy with big trucks coming and going. Surfaces are often gravel or paved and can be dusty or muddy depending on the weather, so watch for backing vehicles and give big rigs plenty of room. Lines build up on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so expect some wait time during busy periods.
