Canyonville Transfer Station in Riddle is the local spot where residents and small haulers drop off household trash and recyclables before it's compacted and trucked out. Located at 600 Jordan Creek Rd, it gets used mostly by folks from around town who don't want to drive to a big landfill far away. Expect a modest, working-site feel rather than anything fancy.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared for a scale - loads are typically weighed, so there’s a stop in and a stop out. The site has concrete pads, roll-off containers and compactors, with trucks coming and going; it looks like a busy yard rather than a retail recycling center. Recycling bins or collection areas are usually set off to one side, and there are clear paths for vehicles to pull in, unload and merge back out to the road. Weekends and spring cleanup times can get crowded, so lines are common then.
