Locals and haulers drop off household and commercial loads here, especially when smaller transfer stations are full or closed. Expect a working, no-frills place rather than anything neat and tidy.
There’s a scale you drive over and tipping fees are assessed by weight, so trucks usually stop twice - once in and once out. A small attendant booth sits near the entrance where loads are checked, and the active fill area is a series of dirt ramps and compacted piles rather than paved bays. In winter the access road and ramps can get icy or snowed over, and traffic backs up on weekends and during spring cleanup. Commercial loads are handled here, so it’s common to see larger trucks and roll-offs moving through alongside pickup trucks.
