A straightforward county transfer station in Carrollton where residents drop off household and yard bulk items before the loads are compacted and hauled to a landfill. Neighbors use it when hauling more than what curbside will take or when skipping a long drive to a distant landfill.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; most transfer stations have a scale nearby so trucks and trailers are weighed. The site is practical rather than pretty-large concrete pit areas, roll-off containers or compactors, and room to maneuver. Pull up to the unloading area as directed, then move off to let the next vehicle in; weekends and spring cleanup times commonly have lines. Recycling and drop-off containers are usually grouped together, often just past the initial entrance area.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose items with a tarp or rope so nothing blows out while driving to the facility.
- Bring proof of local residency or ID, since many county stations ask for it at the booth.
- Arrive early on weekend mornings to avoid the longest lines, and have help ready to unload large or heavy items.
