Transfer Station

Clinton Town Transfer Station

117 Nod Rd, Clinton, CT 06413, United States

Small-town transfer station where Clinton residents drop off household trash and recyclables before it's compacted and trucked out of state. Locals, contractors with small loads, and folks doing seasonal cleanups use it most. It's the kind of place worth knowing if doing a big clear-out.

Drive up to a staffed entrance booth and be prepared to stop so your vehicle can be directed - there’s usually a short lane to pull into. The site feels industrial: concrete tipping areas, a few large compactors or pits, and heavy trucks coming and going. Expect to be routed to a drop-off point for regular trash and another area for recyclables or bulky items; the trash is compacted here and loaded onto larger trucks. Weekends and spring cleanup bring the longest lines, so plan for some waiting if it’s a busy day.

Before You Go

  • Have any required Clinton or town transfer-station permit ready; many Connecticut towns ask to see one before letting residents in.
  • Load and separate recyclables and bulky items before getting to the booth so unloading goes faster and the line moves quicker.
  • Tie down loose stuff, use bins or boxes for smaller items, and bring gloves - the site is practical, not tidy, and things can be dusty or messy.
