(616) 794-3050

PiTransfer Stationch Sanitary Landfill is the local transfer station in Belding where residents drop off household trash to be compacted and hauled out to a larger landfill. People from town and nearby rural areas use it when it's more convenient than driving to a distant dump. The site sits at 7905 Johnson Rd and functions like a neighborhood drop-off that handles loads for transport elsewhere.

Drive up the entrance and you’ll likely see an entrance booth and a scale to the side; traffic usually slows there for check-in and weighing. Vehicles pull up to a tipping area or compactor pit where attendants direct where to empty loads before trucks take it away. The property is mostly paved with large bins and heavy equipment visible; the layout feels industrial rather than tidy like a recycling center. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busier, so expect a line at peak times.

Before You Go

  • Bring loads secured and separated in advance so dumping is quick - loose items or mixed bags slow things down at the pit.
  • Arrive with easy-to-open doors or tailgates; having an extra set of hands helps if the truck bed is high or bulky items need maneuvering.
  • Empty liquids from containers and tarp loose loads for transport; it reduces mess and makes the offloading process faster.
