Transfer recycling station Richmond

88 Rokell Farm Rd, Richmond, ME 04357

Transfer recycling station Richmond is the local recycling center on Rokell Farm Road that residents use for household drop-offs. It’s focused on keeping materials out of the landfill, so people bring the usual recyclables and sometimes larger items that don’t fit curbside. Neighbors swing by with both small bags and the stuff that accumulates during a seasonal cleanout.

Places like this typically have a short entrance lane and often a small intake booth or scale, so be ready to pull up and stop for a moment if needed. The recycling containers are usually clustered a short drive past the gate - paper and cardboard, bins for glass and metal, and occasionally larger containers for bulky items. Weekends and spring cleanup times get backed up, and bulky or mixed loads take noticeably longer to unload. Signs tend to point the way, so having materials pre-sorted will make the whole visit faster.

Before You Go

  • Flatten and tie down cardboard before arriving - it saves space in the bins and speeds unloading.
  • Load the vehicle so heavy or awkward items are easy to reach first; bring help for mattresses, furniture, or anything unwieldy.
  • Avoid peak times if possible (weekend mornings and spring cleanup weekends); when lines are long, a sorted, organized load gets through much quicker.
