GFL Lynchburg Transfer Station is where local trash and recyclables get compacted and loaded onto bigger trucks for the trip out to a landfill. People from the city and nearby counties - homeowners and small haulers alike - use it when they don't want to drive all the way to a distant dump.

There’s an entrance area with a booth and separate lanes to pull into depending on vehicle size, so follow the arrows and signs as you come in. The drop-off is on a concrete tipping floor with large bays and compactors; it looks industrial and loud at times. Expect a scale stop as part of the traffic flow and trucks maneuvering around, so take it slow. Lines can form, especially on weekends or during spring cleanup, and larger trucks are frequently backing up to load out.

Before You Go

  • Load and secure loose items in the vehicle so unloading is quick and nothing blows out in the lot.
  • Leave extra time on weekend mornings - lining up can add 20–30 minutes at busy times.
  • Wear sturdy shoes and a jacket if it’s cold; the site is open and can be dusty or muddy depending on weather.
