Batavia Transfer Station

Batavia Transfer Station is the local spot where curbside and drop-off loads get compacted and sent on to a landfill. People bring small-to-medium piles here when driving all the way to a distant landfill isn’t worth it. It’s the place neighbors use for weekend cleanouts and yard debris drops.

Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to stop; there’s typically a scale involved so vehicles may be weighed on the way in or out. The tipping area is a concrete pad with large containers and compactors visible from the driveway; it can be noisy and a bit smelly, especially on hot days. Recycling bins are usually off to the right just past the entrance booth, with general trash and bulky item drop spots beyond that. Trucks come and go frequently since loads are consolidated here before heading to a landfill elsewhere.
