Hamilton Township Ecological Center

A county-run drop-off site in Hamilton Township where local residents haul household refuse and recyclables. Neighbors from around town use it for regular cleanouts and seasonal junk runs, so traffic can vary a lot depending on the day.

There’s an entrance booth and a weigh scale close to the front; vehicles pull up, check in, and then move to the appropriate drop area. The site is larger than a neighborhood transfer station, with open bays and rows of containers visible from the road. Expect other cars and small trucks queued at busy times, and bring straps or tarps because loads are often unloaded from the back of trucks or trailers. Recycling and bulk drop spots are usually separate from general refuse, so follow signs and the flow of traffic once past the booth.
