(740) 992-9504Meigs County Transfer Station in Pomeroy is the local spot where household trash and other loads get compacted and sent off to a landfill elsewhere. People from around the county bring pickup loads, trailers, and bags here when the landfill is too far to drive to. It’s a practical stopping point for residents who need to drop stuff off without a long trip.
Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to pull onto a scale; sites like this usually weigh vehicles so there’s often a stop at the scale on the way in or out. The tipping area is open and industrial - compactors and large roll-off containers are visible, and transfer trucks come and go. Recycling or drop-off bins are typically grouped to one side of the yard so non-trash items can be set aside quickly. Weekends and spring cleanup times often have lines, so expect some waiting if arriving during peak times.
