Ciro Road Transfer Station is the local transfer station in North Branford that residents use to drop off household trash and recycling before it gets compacted and hauled elsewhere. People who live nearby come here instead of driving to a distant landfill, especially when clearing out a garage or doing seasonal cleanups.
There’s usually an entrance booth and a drive-up lane where vehicles wait to be checked or weighed. Expect to cross a scale and stop again on the way out since many transfer stations charge by weight. The site is dominated by large concrete tipping areas and compactor trucks, with recycling containers and sort areas set off to one side. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be the busiest, so lines can form quickly.

Before You Go
- Have any required town permit or ID ready before you pull up; many Connecticut towns limit access to residents.
- Load items so they can be tossed or offloaded quickly-loose bags and easily handled materials speed things along.
- Plan to arrive early on weekends or during spring/fall cleanups to avoid long waits in line.
