GFL Weldon Transfer Station

2211 US-301, Halifax, NC 27839

(252) 536-4406

GFL Weldon Transfer Station is the local place where household and small commercial loads get compacted and sent off to a landfill. People from Halifax and the surrounding counties use it when hauling piles that are too big or inconvenient to take to a distant landfill. It sits right on US‑301 and looks like an industrial yard rather than a tidy recycling center.

Drive up to a gated entrance with an attendant booth and a scale nearby; most drivers stop at the booth first and then cross the scale. The site is a working yard with large roll-off containers and compactors, so expect trucks and heavy equipment moving around. Pull up where directed and have the load ready to be dumped - there’s usually a clear drive-to area for dropping materials before compaction. North Carolina has separate rules for electronics and hazardous items, so those won’t be handled like regular household trash.

Before You Go

  • Tie down or tarp loose material so nothing blows out while driving; loose debris is a hassle to clean and can slow the process.
  • Separate obvious recyclables and bulky items in the vehicle so unloading is faster - it makes the drop-off quicker even if separate bins aren’t used for everything.
  • Plan for lineups on weekends and during spring cleanup; arriving midweek or early in the morning often means shorter waits.
