Huerfano County Waste Transfer

Huerfano County Waste Transfer in Walsenburg is the small transfer station locals use when a quick drop-off beats a long drive to a landfill. Pickup trucks, trailers and the occasional contractor load are the usual traffic. The site compacts what comes in and then hauls it out to a landfill elsewhere.

Pull up to a modest entrance booth and a scale; plan to stop there and likely stop again on the way out since charges are by weight. The yard is mostly gravel with large roll-off containers and a compactor, so it feels like a working industrial lot rather than a tidy recycling center. Once past the booth, look for the tipping area and the bulk containers-recycling bins are typically grouped off to one side. Expect trucks moving around and a bit of dust, especially in dry weather.
