transfer stations
Garbage sorting facilities
Transfer stations are facilities where waste is temporarily deposited before being transported to its final destination—typically a landfill or recycling center.
Garbage trucks unload at a transfer station, and the waste is consolidated onto larger vehicles for more efficient long-haul transport.
The county operates three transfer stations where residents can drop off bulky items.
