Sullivan County Transfer Sta at 804 Raytheon Rd in Bristol is the county transfer station locals use when a trip to the landfill isn’t practical. Residents and small-haul drivers drop off household loads here; the material is compacted and then trucked out to a landfill elsewhere.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop - there’s usually a scale nearby so expect to pause more than once. The site looks industrial: concrete pads, large compacting equipment, and big transfer trucks coming and going. Pull up where directed and wait for a clear spot to unload; some drop areas are elevated or set behind a retaining wall. Weekends and spring-cleanup times commonly have lines, so allow extra time.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose items with a tarp and straps so nothing blows out en route or during unloading.
- Sort bulky items (furniture, tree limbs) from bagged trash before reaching the booth to speed the process.
- Wear sturdy footwear and gloves - surfaces are often gravel or concrete and heavy equipment operates nearby.
