Overview

The Sutton Transfer Station is a facility utilized to consolidate the loads of several waste collection deliveries into a single, larger container for shipment to the final disposal site at the Central Landfill in Palmer.

This facility consists of four 40 cubic yard containers adjacent to a ramp for the collection of waste. There is a Connex for the collection of antifreeze, batteries, cooking oil, motor oil and latex paint (limited daily quantities). Propane tanks up to 35 lbs. (5 gallons) are accepted. Common scrap metal appliances (residential and commercial sized units) are not accepted at this facility, this includes refrigerators, washers, dryers, etc.

Loads may not exceed five cubic yards in volume. Loads may not exceed 8 feet in length. This is due to the limitations of the transport container. These types of loads will be redirected to the Central Landfill in Palmer.

All loads must be secured when arriving at the facility or an unsecured load fee will be charged. Loads may be secured to vehicle with rope, bungee, net, tarp, etc.

Accepted materials may include municipal solid waste.

What does a transfer facility do?

A transfer facility receives waste and moves it through the next step of the process. It often serves as a place where waste is combined, sorted, or prepared before being taken to another facility for recycling, treatment, or disposal.

Why not take waste straight to its final destination?

In some cases, sending waste through a transfer facility can save time, reduce hauling costs, or make it easier to manage larger amounts of material. It can also help connect waste with the right next stop when the final destination is farther away or better suited for a certain type of waste.
