Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Trucks drop loads here to be compacted and then hauled out to a final disposal site, and neighbors swing by with household cleanouts and small construction loads.
There’s an entrance booth and a drive-in lane where vehicles stop to be checked and weighed; many transfer stations use weight to set fees, so expect to pause at the scale. The yard is mostly paved with large concrete bays for incoming loads and open space for maneuvering; big roll-off trucks and compactors are a constant presence. Lines form on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so traffic can back up; staff usually direct traffic at the scale and tipping area. Look for signage as we approach the scales and tipping rows, and be ready to back up into a bay or drive forward when signaled.
