Garbage Gobbler Transfer Sta

Garbage Gobbler Transfer Sta is the small transfer station out on W Riddleville in Karnes City that locals use when hauling more than the curb will take. Older pickup trucks, trailers, and folks doing a cleanup run here because the site compacts loads and hauls them out to a larger landfill.

There’s a modest entrance with a payment/setup booth and a scale where trucks usually stop; most transfer stations weigh loads and then compact them for transport. Pull up to the booth first, then follow signs or the traffic flow toward the tipping area and the compactor bays. The site looks industrial - concrete pads, metal walls around the pits, and large trucks coming and going - so expect dust, some noise, and the smell that comes with handling trash. Lines form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so vehicles often idle in a short queue at the entrance.
