After weighing, follow the traffic flow to a large tipping area where vehicles dump and compactors or transfer trailers take over; it can be dusty and noisy. Smaller bins and containers are usually off to one side, so having items loosely sorted cuts down on time. Lines build on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup season, so waits are common then.
