(602) 322-0330Republic Services Phoenix Transfer Station is a local transfer station in south Phoenix where residential and contractor loads are dropped off, compacted, and sent on to a landfill elsewhere. Neighbors use it when hauling household junk, construction debris, or larger loads that aren’t convenient to take to a distant landfill. The site sits at 1500 S 7th St and looks like a working industrial yard rather than a retail drop-off.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; there’s usually a scale near the entrance or exit so vehicles are weighed. Pull into lanes that lead to a tipping floor or drop-off pit where crews or equipment will compact materials into larger transfer trailers. The yard has heavy equipment and piles of different material types, and traffic can back up during weekends or seasonal cleanups. Expect a no-frills, industrial setting with concrete pads, loading ramps, and clear space for trucks to maneuver.
