(920) 983-3341GFL Green Bay Transfer Station in De Pere is the local spot where residential and commercial loads get dropped off to be compacted and sent on to a landfill. People hauling a pickup or contractor loads use it when driving all the way to a distant landfill isn’t worth it. The site sits on S Broadway not far from the city, so it’s convenient for Brown County residents.
Drive up to a single entrance with a small booth and a scale; most transfer stations weigh vehicles on the way in and again on the way out. Pull up to the booth lane and prepare to be directed to the tipping area or recycling drop-off-there are usually separate bays or containers for different types of material. The yard is industrial: big compactors, piles of material, and room for commercial trucks, so expect noise and heavy equipment movement. Winter can change how the site operates, and the lot may be plowed but slick in spots, so allow extra time.
