Waste Management - Fresno Transfer Station

Small-scale transfer station in south Fresno used by local residents and small haulers. Trucks and personal vehicles drop off loads here so material can be compacted and driven to a landfill elsewhere. Good for folks who don't want to make the longer trip out to a remote landfill.

A gated entrance with a scale and an attendant booth is typical; expect to slow down and stop at the scale both entering and leaving since charging is usually by weight. Drive-up lanes are concrete and often shared with commercial trucks, so watch for backing rigs and larger vehicles. The yard has piles and compactors visible from the drop-off area, with dust, diesel smell, and constant vehicle movement common. Lines get long on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so plan for waits.
