Waste Management - Antioch Transfer Station

1428 Antioch Pike, Antioch, TN 37013

(800) 796-9696

Small-transfer-station setup off Antioch Pike used by locals dropping household junk and contractor bags. Neighbors and small haulers tend to bring materials here because loads get compacted and sent elsewhere rather than having to drive all the way to a distant landfill. The site sees a mix of pickup trucks, trailers, and the occasional small box truck.

Drive up to an entrance booth or gate area where vehicles are directed to a drop-off lane; many transfer stations have a scale so expect to stop twice if weight is used. The yard is mostly open with concrete pits or ramps where compactors or load-out trucks work; there are piles or containers for different kinds of material set off to the side. Pull up, get directed to the proper spot for your load, then back up to dump or hand things off at the edge of the pit. Weekends and spring cleanup times usually mean longer lines and more waiting around.

Before You Go

  • Sort and consolidate ahead of time so loading/unloading is quicker; loose trash, bagged items, and bulky pieces load differently and slow things down.
  • Bring straps or a tarp if hauling a load on a trailer - windy conditions can scatter debris and staff often expect loads to be contained before leaving.
  • Avoid peak weekend hours if possible; midweek mornings are typically less crowded and shorter waits if the schedule allows.
