Republic Services Paradise Transfer Station

Republic Services Paradise Transfer Station is a transfer station out on W Lower Buckeye that locals use when a quick trip to a landfill isn’t practical. Mostly used by homeowners clearing out a garage or small contractors moving loads, the place handles material that gets compacted and trucked off-site. Expect a working, no-frills facility that looks like a typical Arizona transfer point-dusty and exposed to the sun and wind.

Pull into a small entrance lane with an attendant booth where traffic is funneled through before heading deeper into the site. A scale is likely before you leave, so the truck may be weighed coming and going; that’s common at transfer stations. Vehicles queue up to the drop-off area and the material goes into large collection bays where loaders and compactors handle it. The lot is open and prone to dust, especially on windy days, and weekend lines can stack up during busy cleanup seasons.
