Small town transfer station used by Littleton residents for dropping off household trash and recyclables. The place is modest in scale-more of a working yard than a fancy depot, and mostly frequented by locals doing cleanup runs or small renovation hauls.

A single entrance with an attendant booth near the gate and a scale you pass on the way in; most vehicles pull up to the booth first. Beyond that the site opens into compactors and tipping areas with piles and containers around the perimeter. The recycling bins are off to the right of the main area, while the trash tipping is straight ahead; signs are practical and worn, not decorative. Weekends, especially in spring, get noticeably backed up so traffic can slow down at the entrance.

Before You Go

  • Bring help to unload if hauling bulky items-there are concrete banks and higher ledges that make lifting awkward.
  • Have materials separated in the vehicle so switching between recycling and trash stops is quick; Massachusetts rules mean many places expect some sorting.
  • Expect to stop at the booth and the scale as you come and go, and leave space in front of larger trucks if one is backing into a compactor.
