Middleton Transfer Station on Natsue Way is where most town residents drop off household trash and bulk items to be compacted and trucked out. People use it when they don't want to drive all the way to a distant landfill. It feels like a working yard - practical and a little gritty, not a retail place.
Drive into a paved lot and you'll likely pass a small entrance booth where vehicles pause briefly before moving on. The site has concrete pads and large containers or bays for dropping different kinds of material, with compactors and transfer trucks operating in the background. Signage points toward the various drop areas, so have loads ready to unload and follow the flow of traffic. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, often have a line, so plan for a wait.
