Republic Services Dump & Transfer Station
2017 N Fares Ave, Evansville, IN 47711
(800) 886-3345Republic Services Dump & Transfer Station is a transfer station in Baltimore where local trash gets compacted and loaded into larger trucks to head off to a landfill. Locals and small haulers use it when hauling to a distant landfill isn't convenient. It's the kind of place busy with steady traffic, especially on weekends and during cleanup season.
Pull up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop-there's usually a scale nearby and charges are commonly based on weight. Trucks and covered trailers are the norm; expect to see large compactors and transfer trailers on site. The lay-out is industrial: concrete tipping areas, high walls or bays, and piles being moved by heavy equipment. Lines can form quickly, so be ready for a bit of waiting during peak times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a vehicle that can back into a tipping area; tight turns and high curbs are common at transfer stations.
- Secure loose items and cover loads so debris doesn't blow out while waiting in line or driving through the yard.
- Avoid weekend mornings if possible-midweek or late afternoons tend to be less congested.
