(530) 878-1077Meadow Vista Transfer Station is the local spot in Meadow Vista for dropping off household loads that get compacted and trucked out to a landfill. Neighbors and small haulers use it when taking smaller loads that don’t make sense to drive all the way to a distant landfill.
Expect a typical transfer station setup: an entrance with a check-in booth and a scale for weighing loads, then a drive-up area where vehicles tip into bays or a compactor. The site looks industrial-concrete tipping bays, piles of materials, and a few roll-off containers-so bring something sturdy for walking. Because this is in California, be prepared to separate recyclables and organics if asked and to be charged by weight or type of material, and note weekends and spring cleanup times can have long lines.
