GFL Kenosha Transfer Station is the local transfer station in Kenosha where residential drivers drop off loads to be compacted and shipped out to a landfill. Neighbors bringing bulk trash or the kind of load that’s not convenient to haul to a distant landfill use this place. It’s the kind of spot that handles more than just a carload-expect larger trucks and roll-offs on site.

Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; many transfer stations use a scale so vehicles may be weighed on the way in and again on the way out. The site is mostly concrete and large ramps or pits for tipping are visible from the approach, with compactors and transfer trailers nearby. Recycling and drop-off points tend to be grouped near the front of the property, while larger commercial vehicles maneuver toward the back. Lines can form on weekends and during spring cleanup, and winter schedules or procedures in Wisconsin sometimes change how the site operates.

Before You Go

  • Have materials reasonably sorted and secured before getting in line so unloading goes faster and nothing blows out of a truck or trailer.
  • Bring a government-issued ID or proof of residency in the Kenosha area if required for residential access-many local facilities ask for it.
  • Avoid peak times like weekend mornings or spring cleanup weekends if possible; a midweek or late-afternoon visit usually moves quicker.
