The Transfer Station Facility primarily consists of a waste drop-off area where bagged waste is deposited into a large stationary trash compactor.  No permit is required, nor do you need to be a City resident.  This service operates by purchasing a printed, large plastic bag at the cost of $4.00 per bag.  Bags can be purchased at any of the following sites:

• Transfer Station on Weibel Ave, 8:00 am to 3:45 pm, Tuesday through Saturday
• DPW office at 5 Lake Ave, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday
• or at the Stewart's location at the corner of Lake Ave and Gilbert Road

The Transfer Station and Recycling Center operates on Weibel Ave from 8:00 am to 3:45 pm, Tuesday through Saturday.

If you have questions you can contact the Transfer Station directly at (518) 581-1430 or at the DPW office at (518) 587-3550, ext. 2555.

Hazardous Waste

Every other year Saratoga Springs has a Household Hazardous Waste Day, which is reimbursed 50% through a grant from NYSDEC.  The Hazardous Waste Day allows Saratoga Springs City residents to get rid of harmful toxic substances and pollutants that can eventually end up in our watershed.  The next event will be held in the fall of 2019.
