Mashpee Transfer Station at 380 Asher's Path E is the town transfer station used by Mashpee residents to drop off household trash and recyclables. People bring everything from regular trash bags to bulky cleanouts - it's the closer option compared with driving out to a distant landfill.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; many transfer stations have a scale and a check-in point, so plan for a brief pause before being directed in. The site is a working, industrial sort of place: compactors, roll-off containers, and piles of sorted materials, with recycling containers usually grouped off to one side. Lines form on weekends and during spring cleanup, so traffic can back up; spaces to pull up and unload are typically marked but can be tight when busy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort recyclables and separate bulky items at home so unloading goes faster once at the site.
- Expect to stop at a booth/scale and possibly drive through more than once; single trips can take a few extra minutes when it’s busy.
- Bring straps or a tarp for loose items and have someone help lift heavy pieces - the ground and ramps can be uneven and physical help speeds things along.
