Allen County Transfer Station

Small county transfer station used by Scottsville residents dropping off household loads and small trailers. It’s the place where local trash gets compacted and then hauled out to a larger landfill. Folks from town swing by when a haul to the distant landfill just isn’t worth it.

Expect a modest, industrial lot with a drive-up entrance, an attendant booth, and a place to pull up and unload; trucks and pickups are common. Loads are usually compacted on site and loaded into larger trucks for transport elsewhere, so this isn’t a landfill where things get buried. There’s typically a short wait when multiple vehicles are ahead, especially on weekends or during spring cleanup. Vehicles will usually be weighed or checked at the gate and payment is handled before leaving the site.
