Waste (trash) from commercial haulers and full trailers are
emptied by truck in the Transfer Station building. The area
inside the Transfer Station building where trucks empty their
load is called the "tipping floor". The tipping floor is reached
through the Transfer Station entrance off of Shady Grove Road.
The load is dumped directly onto the floor of the Tipping Floor,
where "front end loaders" push the refuse into the top of a
compactor.
