Large transfer trailers replace several collection vehicles for the hauling of waste to the disposal site
Collection vehicles are rapidly routed back to work, at-site or turn-around time is reduced compared to the normal time associated with disposal
Paved roads/tipping surfaces at transfer station reduce maintenance costs
Disposal facilities can be located far from populated areas which may diffuse local siting opposition
Waste stream inspection opportunity when unloading onto tipping floor or into compactors - spotters remove hazardous wastes
Provides another opportunity for recycling, compaction, and/or baling
Easy use of multiple disposal sites
