A transfer site is a designated facility where residents and businesses can bring their garbage, recycling, and other approved materials for proper disposal. Instead of going directly to a landfill, waste collected at a transfer site is temporarily stored and then transported in larger loads to a regional landfill or recycling facility. This system makes waste management more efficient and cost-effective, especially for rural communities like those in Vulcan County.

Each site has different hours and accepted materials, so it’s always best to check before you go.
