Ozarks Transfer Station

A modest transfer station on the east side of Lebanon where people bring household trash and small loads instead of driving all the way to a landfill. Neighbors, contractors with pickup loads, and anyone trimming trees or clearing out a garage tend to use places like this. It’s the sort of stop that makes a long landfill run unnecessary for most local folks.

Drive up to a single-lane entrance with a small booth and a scale; most transfer stations compact trash here then send it off in larger trucks. Vehicles usually pull up to the booth first for a quick check, then move toward the tipping area where dumpsters and compactors are visible. The site is more utilitarian than pretty - gravel or paved aprons, concrete pads, and large metal containers are what to look for. Weekends and spring cleanup days often have more cars waiting, so expect a short line at busier times.
