South Stevens County Transfer Station - Trash Drop Off

South County Transfer Station (formerly called Loon Lake Transfer Station) is situated approximately 4 miles from Loon Lake off the Grouse Creek Rd., east of State Highway 395.  

Access to each site is restricted by being enclosed by chain link fencing with the only opening, the gate at the entrance road. The road goes past the attendant’s office and over to the dumping area at the edge of the bins. The road also goes down to the ground level of the bins so they can be removed.

Recycling:   Recycling bins for newspaper, plastic milk jugs, tin and aluminum cans are located prior to the dumping area at the South County Transfer Station. Due to the limited hours of operation at the other transfer stations, recycling bins are located in nearby communities. The recycling containers are set up as self-serve for the public.

Household Hazardous Waste:  Waste oil, antifreeze and batteries are recycled at all four transfer stations.  The waste oil container is a polypack holding two (2) 55 gallon drums or a 200 gallon metal container. The antifreeze container is a polypack which holds one (1) 55 gallon drum. Batteries are placed on a leak proof pallet.
