A small transfer station in Walnutport that locals use when they don't want to drive out to a distant landfill. Mostly residential pickups and people dropping off carloads of household junk use this place. It’s the sort of site neighbors head to for cleanup runs and spring yard clearouts.
Pull up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale; transfer stations commonly charge by weight so there’s usually a weigh-in and weigh-out. The yard has compactors and a few large roll-off areas, with piles of sorted material and an open tipping floor where trucks unload. Traffic can be slow on weekend mornings and during bulk pickup season, with a short line of vehicles waiting to get weighed and directed. Look for obvious lanes for cars and larger trucks and expect to follow on-site signs and attendants for where to pull up.

Before You Go

- Drop off bulky items early in the morning on weekdays if possible; weekends and spring cleanups get noticeably busier.
- Load the truck so heavy items are on the bottom and are easy to toss; it makes the unloading faster and keeps the line moving.
