Small county transfer station used mostly by local residents and some small haulers. People stop here when hauling household junk, yard debris, or a load too big for regular curbside pickup. It’s the kind of place that’s practical, a little dusty, and worth knowing if staying in McKee.
Drive up to a single entrance with an attendant booth and a scale-there’s usually a short pause to get directed where to pull up. Vehicles back up to a concrete tipping bay or compactor area where trash is dumped and then hauled out on larger trucks. The site is mostly open yard and gravel, with piles of compacted material and equipment around, so expect some noise and dust. Weekends and early spring cleanup days often have the longest lines, so plan for a wait.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose loads (tarp or tie down) so things don’t blow out on the way in or while waiting in line.
- Have materials sorted as much as possible before getting to the bay to speed things along when it’s your turn.
- Bring gloves and eye protection for unloading-there’s often broken stuff, nails, or sharp branches in household or yard debris.
