Transfer Stations

Small county-style transfer station a lot of Marcola folks use when they don't want to drive all the way to a regional landfill. Mostly residential cars and small trailers show up with household trash, yard debris, and recyclables. The place feels practical rather than fancy - just a booth, some tipping bays, and big containers.

Drive up to a staffed entrance booth where vehicles are briefed and routed; there's usually a scale you cross so weights can be recorded, meaning a stop on the way out is common. Pull-ups and backing into a metal tipping area are the norm, with compactors and roll-off containers visible around the site. Recycling bins tend to sit to one side, and Oregon-style bottle returns and sorting rules are something to pay attention to before getting there. Weekends and spring cleanup times often have lines, so expect short waits during busy periods.
