The Transfer Station is open regular hours today. (10am - 6pm)

As some of you may know, there was a fire in the hopper yesterday afternoon (Wednesday, July 29, 2026). The Fire Department arrived promptly & extinguished the fire. The fire is believed to have started from electrical/battery-operated holiday decorations and/or a small propane tank that were found to be thrown into the hopper.

Please be mindful of what is being thrown into the hopper & dispose of all items properly. Battery operated, electrical & flammable items shall not be disposed of in the hopper as they pose risks.

We would like to thank & acknowledge the Transfer Station & Fire Department staff for their professional & efficient actions during the event.
