Rangeley Transfer Station

649 Loon Lake Rd, Rangeley, ME 04970

(207) 864-5610

Rangeley Transfer Station is the small town transfer spot on Loon Lake Road where locals drop off household trash to be compacted and hauled out. Neighbors who don’t want to drive to a distant landfill use it for routine loads and cleanup runs. Expect a modest, functional setup typical of Maine's rural transfer stations.

Drive in to a single-lane entrance with a small attendant booth near the driveway; vehicles usually pull up next to the booth for a quick check before moving on. The tipping area and compactor are on the far side, so plan to back up or walk a short distance to unload depending on vehicle type. Recycling bins and container areas are often clustered to one side of the site, and loads are consolidated here before being trucked elsewhere. Winter can make the access road and yard slippery or plowed, so extra time and care are common during colder months.

Before You Go

  • Secure tarps and tie down loose items before leaving the driveway so nothing flies out while driving to and from the site.
  • Bring a rake or shovel and gloves if dropping off bagged or loose materials - the ground can be muddy or icy and having tools speeds unloading.
  • Plan for weekend or spring cleanup lines; arriving midweek or early in the morning often means less waiting.
