The Town of Halfmoon operates a Transfer Station and Recycling Center for the convenience of its residents located at 322 Route 146 at the Highway Department Facility. 

A permit is required to utilize the Transfer Station; permits are available at the Town Clerks Office free of charge with proof of residency.  Punch cards can be purchased either at the Town Clerk’s Office or at the Transfer Station at a cost of $30.00 for 10 punches. 

The Town strives to continue to offer a facility that operates 3 days a week, the revenue collected from user fees help offset the expenses to operate this facility. 

The Town of Halfmoon Transfer Station is for Halfmoon Residents only.  The health and safety of our residents and employees is our highest priority. 

Please call me at 518-664-3127 or email me at bbryans@townofhalfmoon.org anytime.  I am here to serve all Town Residents.  Have a great day and stay safe!
