A small-town transfer station that Berwick residents use to drop off household trash and bring bulk items instead of driving to a distant landfill. Locals and town haulers stop here to have garbage compacted and loaded onto outbound trucks. It’s the kind of place most people in town have been to at least once when cleaning out a garage or after a small renovation.
Drive up to a single entry where there’s typically a booth or small building near the driveway; that’s where traffic is directed. Vehicles pull up, unload into open bays or containers, and the compacted material is staged for larger trucks that haul it away. The site is more utilitarian than neat - gravel or paved yard, piles or containers, and room for trucks to maneuver. In winter the lot can be icy or packed with snow and operations slow down, so plan for extra time.

Before You Go
- Bring help and sturdy gloves for unloading heavier or awkward items; there won’t be staff to lift things for you.
- Secure loads before arrival so nothing falls out while lining up; loose debris is a hassle for everyone.
- Avoid weekend peak times if possible-spring and early fall cleanup days get long lines, and winter storms can make access tricky.
