Transfer Station

Patrick County Transfer Sta

171 Transfer Station Ln, Stuart, VA 24171

(276) 694-6749

Small county transfer station off Transfer Station Lane in Stuart used by local residents hauling household trash and yard debris. Visitors drop loads here so trucks can compact and haul them to a larger landfill elsewhere, which makes it a handy option if driving to the distant landfill isn't appealing.

Pull into a single-lane entrance and stop at a little booth where they check vehicles; there’s usually a scale either before or after that booth and loads are typically weighed. Drive toward the tipping floor area where larger trucks compact material; the site looks industrial - concrete pads, metal ramps, and tall retaining walls. Recycling or special drop-off bins are often off to one side, and weekend lines can form during peak cleanup times.

Before You Go

  • Bring straps or a tarp for loose loads so nothing blows out while driving - pickups and trailers can spill easily on the way in or out.
  • Sort bulky items and loose trash in advance; having boxes or tied bundles ready speeds the process and reduces time spent deciding where things go.
  • Plan to go early on weekend or spring-cleanup days if possible, since lines and wait times tend to build up later in the morning.
