Cornwall Transfer Station

A small transfer station serving Cornwall and neighboring towns, where local trash is compacted and sent offsite. Mostly used by residents dropping off household trash and recyclables, it feels like a practical spot rather than a fancy facility.

Drive up to a single entrance area with a small gate/booth and a scale - vehicles usually stop twice if they charge by weight. The lot has a few bays and a larger paved area where trucks back up to compact loads; expect to see roll-off containers and tractor-trailers coming and going. Pull up slowly and follow the flow of cars; there’s limited room for maneuvering, so wider vehicles need extra clearance. Lines form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so there can be a wait before getting to the drop-off point.
