Carrabassett Valley Transfer

Small transfer station used by Carrabassett Valley residents and nearby towns when hauling household trash and recyclables. Located just off Carrabassett Drive, it's the sort of place locals use instead of driving all the way to a distant landfill. Winters can make the drive and the yard a bit sloppy, so plan accordingly.

Drive up to a manned entrance booth and be prepared to wait in a short line on busy weekend mornings or during spring cleanup. There is a scale/drive-over area and large roll-off compactors or trailers where trucks dump loads before they go out to a landfill. The recycling containers and scrap metal area are usually grouped to one side of the yard, with room to pull up and sort before unloading. The site is utilitarian - gravel or packed surface, some fencing, and clear sightlines so backing up big loads is possible.
