(561) 640-4000SWA West Central County Transfer Station is the local transfer spot serving West Palm Beach/Royal Palm Beach residents who don't want to make the long drive to a landfill. It compacts loads and ships them offsite, so it functions more like a quick drop-off than a dump run. Expect a working, industrial yard with trucks coming and going.
When pulling in there’s usually an entrance booth and a scale; many transfer stations charge by weight, so be prepared to pause on the way out as well. The site looks busy - compacting equipment, big trucks, and the sort of dust and noise that comes with heavy machinery. Weekends fill up fast, and lines get noticeably worse during spring cleanup or right before hurricane season. Operations can be interrupted for storms, so county notices are worth watching during hurricane season.
