Small, local transfer station used mainly by Waldoboro residents and people from nearby towns hauling household trash and recyclables. It’s where loads get compacted and loaded onto bigger trucks headed elsewhere, and most folks stop here when a long drive to a landfill isn’t worth it.
Drive up to an entrance booth/checkout area and be prepared to check in before you go to the drop-off spots. The site looks like a yard with large containers and a tipping area where trucks and roll-offs sit; vehicles pull up to specific bays or piles to unload. Lines form on weekends and during spring cleanup, so expect a short wait then; weekday mornings usually move quicker. Payment is handled at the booth or a pay station, so have whatever proof or payment information the town asks for ready.

Before You Go
- Sort materials at home into trash, recyclables, and metal/large items so unloading goes faster and less back-and-forth is needed.
- Avoid mid-morning weekends if possible - aim for early weekday mornings or late afternoons to cut down on wait time.
- Have any town sticker or residency proof and payment info handy, and bring gloves, straps, and an extra pair of hands for bulky or heavy items.
