Small, working transfer station on North First Street used by residents and small haulers who don't want to drive out to a landfill. Trucks pull in, loads get compacted or consolidated, then head out to a landfill elsewhere. Expect a gritty, industrial feel rather than anything polished.
Drive up to a guarded entrance/scale area where trucks usually line up; larger vehicles go first and cars or small trailers pull in behind. There are tipping bays and compactors, so it will be noisy with backing beeps and diesel engines running. The site is mostly concrete and gravel with piles, loaders, and semi trailers moving around-watch for traffic flow and follow staff directions. On busy weekend mornings there can be a line, but midweek tends to be quieter.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose items and tarps before getting near the tipping area-wind and passing trucks can make things messy.
- Bring a strong tarp or straps for loads with loose debris; small bits can scatter while driving across the lot.
- Plan for noise and dust: keep windows closed in the vehicle while waiting and wear shoes that can handle gravel if stepping out.
