Lawrenceville Transfer Station

Lawrenceville Transfer Station is where local trash is compacted and loaded into larger trucks to be hauled off to a landfill. Neighbors and small haulers use it when they don't want to drive out to a distant dump. It's located on Maltbie Industrial Drive in Lawrenceville, in an industrial area with big driveways and truck traffic.

There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale, so plan on stopping twice - once in and once out - since these sites commonly charge by weight. Pull into a lane, talk to the attendant at the booth, then follow the flow toward the tipping bays where you’ll see large concrete pads and compactor equipment. Expect plenty of big trucks and roll-off containers; weekends and spring cleanup times get backed up. The site will be noisy and dusty, with concrete ramps and high walls around the tipping areas.
