Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Kimble Canton Transfer Station is a local transfer station in Canton where residents and small haulers drop off household and yard debris to be compacted and sent on to a landfill. Neighbors use it when a trip to a distant landfill isn’t convenient or when a small pickup load needs to be consolidated for transport. The site looks like a working lot rather than a recycling center-trucks, compactors, and piles of material are visible from the drive-up.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; a scale is usually in play so vehicles are weighed going in or out. After the booth there’s a pull-up area and access to tipping bays or chutes where loads are emptied; staff direct traffic to the proper spot. Large compactors and transfer trailers are parked on site and the whole place has an industrial feel-concrete pads, fencing, and a lot of vehicle movement. Weekends and spring clean-up times commonly get backed up, so lines and wait times can form.
