Jacona Transfer Station

Santa Fe North, Santa Fe, NM 87506

Get Directions

Jacona Transfer Station in Santa Fe North is the neighborhood spot where residents and small haulers drop off loads that get compacted and loaded onto bigger trucks bound for a landfill. People use it when hauling stuff that’s easier to leave at a nearby transfer station than to drive all the way out to a landfill.

There’s an entrance booth and a lane to pull up for check-in, then traffic moves toward scales and the tipping bays where loads are emptied. The site looks industrial - concrete bays, big compactors and transfer trailers are visible from the drive-in; expect dust and gravel underfoot. Lines build up on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so the drive-through can take a while at peak times. Keep things accessible in the vehicle: it’s common to stop more than once as vehicles are weighed and then directed to unload.

Before You Go

  • Secure and cover loose material with a tarp so debris doesn’t fly out on the way and unloading is cleaner.
  • Sort bulky items from smaller, liftable bags so the unload process goes faster; have straps or ropes ready for large pieces.
  • Avoid peak times if possible-weekday mornings or mid-afternoons are usually quieter than weekend and early-morning rushes.
