Myrtle Creek Transfer Site is the small transfer station off Transfer Rd that locals use when hauling household junk or yard debris instead of driving all the way to a distant landfill. People from town swing by with pickups, trailers, or a load in the back of the car because it’s the closest place to drop off mixed material before it’s hauled out.
Drive up the access road and pull into the line beside the entrance booth; there’s usually a stop at a scale so loads are checked by weight. The site feels compact - large open bays and a few concrete pits for different types of drop-offs, with recycling bins tacked off to one side. Traffic piles up on weekend mornings and during yard cleanup season, so expect to idle in line briefly. Trucks back in to compact or transfer material, so watch for cones and follow the attendant’s direction when it’s your turn.
