Town Transfer Station in Saint George is the small town spot where local trash is dropped off, compacted, and sent out on larger trucks. Neighbors from around town use it for household cleanouts, regular trash runs, and dropping off recyclables when available.

Drive in to a modest, fenced lot with a small entrance booth and a few piles or containers for different materials. Vehicles typically pull up to the booth/scale area first, then follow signs or simple lanes to the compactor and recycling area. The site looks utilitarian rather than polished-gravel or packed dirt surfaces, a scale, and heavy equipment nearby-so take it slow when maneuvering. Busy times, like weekend cleanup days and spring, can mean lines and waiting to get to the drop-off point.

Before You Go

  • Bring items already sorted into separate bags or boxes so unloading goes faster and fewer trips across the yard are needed.
  • Have a town sticker or ID ready if required by the municipality; it speeds the check-in at the booth/scale.
  • Plan for slower travel and icy spots in winter-leave extra time and secure loose materials in the truck bed or trailer.
