The Transfer Station
The Town Transfer Station is located at 1850 Rangeline Road. It is available to all Town of Washington residents and is accessible by permit only. Town issued permits must be shown to the attendant upon entrance to the facility.
Those without a permit will be turned away and not allowed to dump their trash. Please have your CURRENT permit visible for attendant.
The Town has 2 large compactors - one for garbage and one for recyclables. All recyclables can be put in the the recycle compactor. You will only need to separate large scrap metal items from your recyclables. Place large metal items and scrap metal in the metal dumpster outside the building. All garbage must be placed in the garbage compactor.
We participate in the NexTrex Community Challenge recycling program. Please deposit all plastic bags and plastic sheeting in the NexTrex containers.
