This transfer station stands at 306 FM 2468 just outside Center, in Shelby County, and it is one of the harder listings on this site to pin down. Republic Services is widely recorded as the operator, and that is how the facility is generally listed, but Republic publishes nothing about it. The company's Center page is a marketing page for kerbside collection in the town; it carries no gate hours, no accepted-materials list and no rates for this address.

Muddying it further, the same address has for years also been listed locally as R&J Recycling and Disposal Transfer Station, through the Shelby County chamber and the business's own social pages, on a different telephone number. We cannot tell from published sources which name is on the gate today.

So we are not going to print a tipping fee for this site, and we are not going to estimate one. There is no rate we can read off an operator's own live page, and a guessed number at a transfer station gate is worse than no number at all.

What we can tell you is what it is: a transfer station, where waste from households, businesses and the local authority is tipped, consolidated and hauled on to a regional landfill rather than buried on site. If you intend to self-haul, ring first, confirm who is operating it, confirm they take walk-in loads at all, and get the price quoted before you drive out. Shelby County residents will often find the city's own arrangements simpler for ordinary household waste.
