Garland County Transfer Station

Garland County Transfer Station is the local transfer station on Airport Road that most Hot Springs residents use when they don't want to drive all the way to a distant landfill. Trucks and pickup loads show up here to have trash compacted and loaded for transport out of county. It’s a working yard-used by homeowners, contractors with small loads, and city crews alike.

Drive in off Airport Road and there’s a small entrance with a booth and scale area where vehicles queue before unloading. The yard itself is open and industrial: large bays or containers for dropping loads, heavy equipment moving material, and a place where trash gets compacted and put on trucks. Recycling bins are often set off to one side past the entry point, and larger roll-off containers sit nearer the back. Lines tend to form on weekends or during seasonal cleanups, so expect some waiting if it’s busy.
