7930 Bankhead Hwy, Douglasville, GA 30134

Waste Industries WesTransfer Stationide Transfer at 7930 Bankhead Hwy (listed for Villa Rica) is a local transfer station where residents drop off household and yard loads that get compacted and shipped out to a landfill. Neighbors use it when a trip to a distant landfill would be too long. It feels industrial and straightforward - not a park, just a place to unload and move on.

Pull up to an entrance booth and queue in lanes; there’s typically a drive-over scale and a place to dump on a concrete tipping floor. The lot has big transfer trailers, compactors and piles of material, so expect some noise and dust. Drivers often have to back up to a bay or pull alongside a pit to unload, then stop at the scale again. Lines build on weekends and during spring cleanup, so waits are common then.

Before You Go

  • Cover and tie down loose loads before leaving home - wind and passing trucks will scatter debris quickly in the lot.
  • Try for a weekday morning to avoid the worst lines; if a line reaches Bankhead Hwy the wait can be long.
  • Sort the truck bed so bulky items are separate from bagged trash - that small bit of organization speeds unloading and minimizes standing around.
