Small-town transfer station on Auble Street used by residents who need a closer drop-off than heading to a distant landfill. Local pickups, DIY loads and contractors show up here when they want the truck compacted and sent on to a larger dump elsewhere.
Drive in past the entrance booth and pull up to the scale area - loads are typically weighed, so there’s a stop on the way out as well. The site looks like a working yard: compactors, roll-off bays and piles or containers for different materials. Traffic can back up on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so prepare for a short line at the gate. Recyclables and bulky items are usually separated from the general trash, with the recycling bins or containers set off to the side of the main drop area.

- Have loads reasonably sorted and easy to unload; loose mixed trash takes longer to handle than boxed or bagged items.
- Bring proper tie-downs or covers for anything being hauled - windy days can make a mess of unsecured loads.
- Plan for a wait on weekends and holiday cleanup periods; going midweek can shave time off the visit.
