Champion Transfer Station

565 Trestle Place, Downingtown, PA 19335

800-963-4776

A modest transfer station off Trestle Place that locals use when a full truckload or car trunk of trash needs dropping off instead of driving out to a distant landfill. Neighbors with renovation debris, yard waste, or just a big spring-cleanout haul tend to stop here rather than making the longer trip.

Pull up to an entrance booth at the lot entrance and be prepared to stop briefly; many transfer stations weigh loads so there’s usually a scale to cross. Traffic lanes lead to a tipping floor where compactors and larger trucks collect material for hauling out. Recycling bins and container areas are often grouped to one side of the property past the initial checkpoint. Lines build up during weekends and spring cleanup times, so it can feel crowded then.

Before You Go

  • Have vehicle information and ID handy in case it’s requested at the gate; being ready makes the drop-off quicker.
  • Tie down loose items and cover loads with a tarp so nothing blows off while waiting in line or driving in.
  • Try for a weekday or early morning visit if possible - weekends, especially during spring cleanup, tend to be the busiest.
