Acworth Transfer Station

5497 N Main St, Acworth, GA 30101

Get Directions

Small, practical transfer station in Acworth that locals use when hauling things that are too big for curbside pickup. Located on N Main Street, it handles loads that get compacted and shipped out to a landfill elsewhere. People who drive larger projects or cleanouts here for convenience rather than making the longer trip to a landfill.

A single-lane entrance with a small booth and a place to pull up to be directed; expect to pause at the booth and again at a scale since transfer stations commonly use scales. The site is mostly concrete and ramps leading up to the compacting area, with large dumpsters and compactors visible from the drive-in. Trucks come and go, and during busy times there can be a line, especially on weekends and during spring cleanup season.

Before You Go

  • Secure loads well and cover loose debris; wind can blow lightweight material off a trailer during transport and while waiting in line.
  • Sort materials at home as much as possible so it's quicker to unload-separating bulky items from smaller debris speeds things up.
  • Bring something to help slide heavy items (blanket, tarp, or dolly) and wear gloves and sturdy shoes; surfaces and edges can be rough around compacting areas.
