Transfer Station
Moreno Valley Transfer Station
17700 Indian Street, Moreno Valley, CA 92551
800-963-4776Moreno Valley Transfer Station is the local spot where household trash and small-haul loads get dropped off and compacted before being trucked out. Neighbors, contractors, and small hauling services use it when a trip to a distant landfill isn’t practical.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale; charges at transfer stations are commonly weight-based so there’s usually a scale in and out. Vehicles pull forward to an open tipping area where loads are emptied into bays or directly into compactors and larger trucks. The site is industrial - expect cement tipping floors, big metal equipment, and steady truck traffic. Weekends and spring-cleanup times tend to be the busiest, so lines and wait times can build up.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Load and secure items so they’re easy to toss off the truck or trailer; loose trash can be messy and slow the process.
- Bring gloves, long sleeves, and closed-toe shoes - the site can be dusty and there’s a lot of heavy stuff to handle.
- Try for a weekday morning if possible; that usually means shorter lines than Saturday or late afternoon.
