transfer station

Meanwhile, Darlington Borough Council's tip and waste transfer station will stay closed all day.

When developers announced plans for a new 38-bay diesel truck transfer station on the grounds of a long-abandoned K-Mart department store, East Portland, Oregon, residents who’d hoped it might become a grocery store instead quickly collected more than 6,600 signatures in opposition and worked to stop it.

Other artifacts the site may cough up — old bricks, cobblestones and rocks, sometimes accompanied by irresistible castoffs retrieved from the transfer station — become part of the improvised mosaics.

Nor is the new Northeast Recycling & Transfer Station that King County is considering for my residential neighborhood feasible.

Neighbors have put up with these impacts for years, believing the county’s promise that the Houghton Transfer Station would close and a new facility would replace it.
