Small-town transfer station just off US-2 that most Crystal Falls residents use when the landfill is too far. Locals bring household trash and bulk bags here so trucks can haul it out to a regional dump. It’s a practical stop for drop-offs rather than a big, full-service landfill.
Drive up the short paved entrance and slow for the little booth where attendants handle check-in and fees; there’s usually a scale nearby so expect to stop twice if they weigh loads. The site is compact with concrete tipping areas and a few large compactors or roll-off containers visible from the entrance. Recycling or bottle bins tend to sit to one side past the booth, while the main drop-off lanes guide vehicles to the tipping face. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, can get backed up, so lines and idling trucks are common then.

Before You Go
- Secure loose items and cover loads before leaving home so nothing blows out while waiting in line.
- Separate obvious recyclables and deposit-eligible bottles/cans ahead of time-it saves unloading time at the bins.
- Bring help for heavy items; the tipping areas are not designed for lone lifting and having an extra pair of hands speeds things up.
