Waste Management - Sanford Transfer Station

Small-town transfer station off Waste Treatment Plant Road that Siler City residents use when heading to a landfill farther away. Mostly serves people dropping off household and yard trash who want something closer than driving to a county landfill. It's the kind of place where trucks and pickups mix with people hauling trailers.

Drive in past a small entrance booth and be ready to pull up for a quick check before proceeding. The site is compact with a few large concrete bays and a compactor where loads get crushed and loaded onto bigger trucks. Recycling bins are usually off to one side and there’s a clear path for backing a trailer into a bay. Weekends, especially spring cleanup times, can have a line of vehicles waiting to get inside.
