Waste Management - Forest Grove Transfer Station

Small, practical transfer station in Forest Grove for people who'd rather drop a load nearby than drive to a big landfill. Neighbors and DIYers swing by with pickup loads, yard debris, and household cleanouts. It's the sort of place that gets busy on weekends and neighborhood clean-up days.

A concrete lot with a low entrance booth where vehicles line up to be weighed; most transfer stations charge by weight, so plan on stopping twice. Pull up to the booth, then follow signs and cones toward the tipping area and the recycling/collection bins that are usually off to one side. The site has large compactor buildings and open bays-bigger rigs move stuff into trailers, while cars and pickups use the smaller bays. Expect trucks coming and going, and keep an eye on traffic flow through the aisles.
