Change in Transfer Station Hours
Mayville, NY -- In an effort to improve efficiencies in Chautauqua County and manage County expenses more effectively, Executive Gregory J. Edwards has announced that the days of operation at the County's four Transfer Stations have changed.
"As we have done in the past, we reviewed our operations to identify areas where we can become more efficient and spend less. One area we analyzed was the County owned landfill."
Edwards said that one point of concern was the expenses the County was incurring for overtime. To combat that, Edwards said the decision was made to close the South County Transfer Station in Falconer on Wednesdays. The South County Transfer Station will remain open on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
"We made this change to reduce the overtime expense that we were incurring within the division, and Wednesday was the lowest volume day," Edwards explained.
Edwards also noted that the North County Transfer Station, which was once available for residential use on Wednesdays, is now only available for commercial haulers that day.
The following days of operation are now in place:
North County Transfer Station (Sheridan) will be open:
· Monday through Friday for commercial haulers;
· Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday for residential
South County Transfer Station (Falconer) will be open:
· Tuesday, Thursday and Friday for commercial haulers;
· Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday for residential
Landfill Transfer Station will be open:
· Monday through Friday for commercial haulers;
· Monday, Wednesday and Saturday for residential.
West County Transfer Station (Sherman) will be open;
· Tuesday for commercial haulers;
· Tuesday and Saturday for residential.
"The County Landfill is an important asset that continues to run as efficiently as possible for County individuals and businesses that use the landfill on a daily basis," Edwards said. "This is further proof that we are doing all that we can to make our County landfill operate at its best to benefit County businesses and residents."
