The Franklin Transfer Station receives solid waste from the city's municipal
haulers, area residents and private waste haulers. Solid waste is screened and
separated by staff members. The burnable waste is loaded onto SPSA transfer vehicles
and delivered to the Refuse Derived Fuel Plant to be converted into fuel. The
non-burnable waste is delivered to the Regional Landfill where it is spread,
compacted and buried under six inches of soil.
