Transfer Station
What We Do
The Transfer Station receives materials such as garbage, recyclable materials, household and yard waste from residents and garbage haulers. An annual Transfer Station Permit is required to use this service (See Permit Application).
These collected materials are reloaded and prepared for transport to “waste to energy” plants. In addition, we organize and conduct Household Hazardous Waste Days on an annual basis
