Transfer Station

Trumbull Transfer Station

101 Spring Hill Rd, Trumbull, CT 06611, United States

A straightforward transfer station in Trumbull where residents drop off household trash and recyclables before it's compacted and hauled out. Neighbors, landscapers, and anyone with a load that won’t fit in curbside cans use this spot. It feels like a working yard rather than a park - trucks, a gate, and piles of material are what to expect.

Pull up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; many transfer stations have a scale and an attendant at the gate. The yard is open with large containers and compactors visible from the drive; drivers will direct cars to the right or left for different drop-offs. Loads are typically unloaded into a pit or container, then compacted and loaded onto transfer trucks for transport out of state. Lines form on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so there can be a short wait with trucks coming and going.

Before You Go

  • Bring any town permit or proof of residency that Trumbull requires for transfer station access - many Connecticut towns do.
  • Secure loose materials and cover loads if required by state or local rules; loose debris can blow out when driving or unloading.
  • Plan for delays on busy days (weekends, leaf season); arrive with an idea of where to drop each type of material to move through the site faster.
