Not sure what goes where? You’re in the right place. This page breaks down what can (and can’t) be recycled at the Lancaster Transfer Station, with simple, local guidance to help you get it right the first time. Recycling works best when we all do our part—and a few small choices can make a big difference for safety, costs, and keeping materials moving to market. You’ll also find a direct link to the Transfer Station website for hours, fees, and additional details.
