Millis Transfer Station at 7 Water St is the small town transfer station where residents drop off household trash and other materials to be compacted and hauled to a landfill elsewhere. Folks from Millis and nearby towns use it when a long drive to a distant landfill doesn’t make sense.
The site is practical rather than fancy - concrete tipping areas and a modest entrance booth or scale are common at places like this. Pull up slowly into the entrance lane, be prepared to stop at the booth/scale, then follow the traffic flow to the tipping area. Signs and simple bins or piles mark where different materials go, so pay attention as you unload. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, and unloading can be dirty and physical work.

Before You Go
- Secure loose items and bag small debris so nothing blows out while driving in or when tipping.
- Bring a second person for heavy or awkward pieces - dumping mattresses, furniture or appliances is much easier with help.
- Avoid weekend mornings if possible; lines are shortest on quieter weekday times.
