Small town transfer station serving Sanford residents for household trash and typical curbside-type disposals. Located on School Street, this is the spot locals use when regular pickup won’t cover a load. Expect a functional, no-frills setup rather than anything fancy.
Drive up the gravel or paved drive and follow the flow of other vehicles - there’s usually a pull-up area with a booth or attendant window near the entrance, and a second stop on the way out if the site uses a scale. The site looks like a working yard: big containers, compactors or drop-off bays, and traffic lanes for trucks and cars. Weekends and spring cleanups fill up quickly, and winter can make some lanes icy or muddy, so give yourself extra time.

Before You Go
- Bring straps or a tarp for loose loads so stuff doesn’t blow out when driving in and out.
- Arrive midweek or early in the morning to avoid the longest lines on Saturdays and during spring cleanup.
- Have materials sorted before getting to the site - stacked, bagged, or separated - so unloading goes faster and neighbors aren’t held up.
