(541) 989-9500A small county transfer station on the north side of Boardman where locals drop off household and yard stuff before it gets compacted and hauled out. People from the surrounding area use it when driving to the big landfill would be a hassle. It’s the kind of place shoppers and renters rely on for an easier trip than a long haul to a regional dump.
Pull up to an entrance with an attendant booth and a scale nearby-vehicles often stop twice, once in and once out, because charges are weight-based at transfer stations. Concrete pads, large roll-off containers, and compacting equipment are visible from the drive; residential cars and small trailers usually unload in a separate area from commercial trucks. Recycling containers tend to sit off to one side past the booth, and the site has a practical, no-frills layout with clear lanes for dumping and exiting. Expect occasional lines on weekends or during seasonal cleanups, with most customers sorting mattresses, branches, bags of trash and recyclables before they get compacted.
