Gordon Wascott Transfer

A small transfer station used by Gordon and nearby residents to drop off household refuse that gets compacted and trucked out. Locals stop here when hauling smaller loads instead of driving all the way to a regional landfill. The place handles everyday residential stuff rather than large commercial disposal.

There’s a little weigh booth and a scale, so expect to pull up, get weighed, and then drive in to unload; most trips loop back over the scale when leaving. Big roll-off containers and a compacting area dominate the yard, with commercial trucks coming and going while residents unload nearby. During winter the lot can be icy and snow banks make maneuvering tighter, and weekends-especially spring cleanup-tend to have a line of pickups. It’s a working, no-frills spot: gravel or pavement underfoot, a few signs with instructions, and staff handling the heavy lifting of the compacting and hauling.
