This facility is really disgusting. Every other transfer station that I have been to, you drive your car on an upper level and throw your garbage over a ledge to a lower level. Here, you are on the garbage level, and there is a layer of sludge under your feet. Why did they design this facility this way?

Great spot, wait times to exit can be a bit long. They have multiple lanes available, but only use 1 station. Clean facility, low odor. Well lit. Free recycling. No complaints.

I have watched the decline over the last several months to a year from a staff that was surprisingly friendly and helpful to the current workers there that are stern angry men that will shut you down for asking a question and tare your head off if you make a mistake. Just terrible, I would hesitate to send anyone I cared about there on their own. What happened?!

This place has to be the most beautiful garbage dump I have ever seen in my life. Here is why. Modern buildings that could be in a magazine. Roll up door in the entrance to block the smell. Ultra modern and friendly staff. I highly recommend seeing this place, because of it being ultra Uber.

They take any trash item. You are charged based on weight. I believe everything under 300lbs or so is about $20. It goes up from there.
