Waste Management - Eastmont Transfer Station

A neighborhood transfer station where household trash is dropped off, compacted, and loaded onto larger trucks for transport out of town. Locals and small haulers use it when a trip to a distant landfill isn't convenient.

Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale before and after unloading since these sites typically charge by weight. The site is industrial-large concrete bays, roll-up doors, and rows of containers, with compacting equipment visible in the main building. Yard debris and recyclables are usually separated at Washington facilities, so expect separate collection areas or bins nearby. Lines form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so traffic can back up at peak times.
