County Transfer Station in Branson is the local place where household loads get compacted and loaded onto bigger trucks instead of being driven out to a distant landfill. Locals and small haulers use it when a quick drop-off is needed without the longer drive to a regional landfill.
Drive up the access road to a small entrance booth and be prepared to slow down for a scale; transfer stations commonly charge by weight so there’s usually a weigh-in and a weigh-out. The site is mainly concrete bays and compacting equipment, with a noticeable roll-off or tipping area where trucks empty into larger containers. Traffic can pile up on weekends or during seasonal cleanups, so expect occasional lines and a bit of maneuvering space for trailers and pickups.

Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or straps for loose loads-wind can make unloading messy and authorities often want loads contained before tipping.
- Trim long branches or break down bulky items so they fit in the bay; it makes unloading faster and keeps the line moving.
- Plan for a little waiting time on Saturdays and during spring cleanup; arriving midweek or midmorning on a weekday usually means fewer vehicles to negotiate around.
