Transfer Station
Schleswig Transfer Center
Keller Ln, Kiel, WI 53042
Schleswig Transfer Center on Keller Ln in Kiel is the small transfer station people from around the area use when a curbside pickup or a long drive to a landfill isn’t convenient. Locals bring household loads and small trailers here; the material gets compacted and hauled off to a landfill elsewhere.
The site looks like a working lot with an entrance booth and a scale at the drive-in - expect to stop and be weighed before moving on. After that, pull up to the tipping area or compacting bays where trucks drop off loads and large containers sit. Vehicles and trailers maneuver here, so watch for backing trucks and keep clear of the tipping floor. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so plan for a wait if it’s busy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with a tarp and straps; loose debris shifts during the short drive between the booth and the tipping area.
- Bring gloves and sturdy shoes - the tipping area can be dusty and uneven underfoot.
- Go early on a weekday if possible; fewer people mean quicker weighing and unloading.
