Baseline Landfill and Transfer Facility

Baseline Landfill and Transfer Facility is the Ocala transfer station at 5601 SE 66th St where local residents and small haulers drop off household and yard material to be compacted and loaded onto larger trucks. It’s used by people who’d rather not drive to a distant landfill and need a local spot to unload.

There’s a staffed entrance booth and a scale, so plan to pull up, stop briefly, and then move through to the drop-off area. Material is compacted on site and then moved out on transfer trucks, so the site feels busier than a simple drop-off - expect a handful of large roll-off trucks and compactors. Yard debris areas are usually separated from general loads, and the site surface is mostly gravel or paved with clear traffic lanes for trucks. Weekends and hurricane cleanup periods can get backed up, so lines and waiting are common.
