There is a fee for using the transfer station which varies depending on the size and weight of items. The fee for each tire or battery is $2.00. TV sets, appliances, mattresses, furniture and electronic items are also accepted. Freeon must be removed from appliances before they will be accepted.
Plant and yard waste is accepted for composting. It may be emptied by residents from a truck or trailer, or brought in bags. Brush may also be dropped off.
The Transfer Station is located on the West side of Rollin Highway, just North of Forrister Road. It is a non-profit collection point for waste and discarded items for Rollin Township residents and property owners. Fees are collected and metals are recycled to help offset costs of operation.
