Republic Services AAA Transfer Station is a transfer station in Nashville that locals use when hauling household junk, yard debris, or construction debris they don't want to drive all the way to a distant landfill for. The site handles loads brought in by residents and contractors, compacting material on-site before sending it out by truck.

Drive up to an entrance booth where staff will direct you to a lane for weighing or tipping; expect to pull up, stop, and follow their instructions. There is a large paved area with a tipping floor and compactors visible from the driving lanes, so trucks and trailers move slowly through the site. You will likely cross a scale at some point and be directed where to dump; after tipping, larger trucks get routed back out to the exit scale. Weekends and seasonal cleanups tend to produce longer lines, so traffic and wait times can vary.

Before You Go

  • Load vehicles so material can be dumped quickly - tarps removed, doors unlatched - to keep the line moving.
  • Arrive earlier in the day on weekends or during spring cleanup to reduce waiting behind trailers and pickup trucks.
  • Sort out recyclables and hazardous items at home; transfer stations like this often separate loads, and having items ready speeds the process.
