Garbage in the Town of Mentz is not going away. Because local landfills are closing in the near future, creating a local Transfer Station is a long-term strategic decision that will position our community favorably for many years to come.
The Mentz Transfer Station Benefits Us All!
As proposed, the new transfer station would:
Save the average household $250 per year
Add 20+ jobs to Port Byron
Contribute $50,000+ per year to the local economy
Increase the tax base by an estimated $29,000 per year
Save the Village of Port Byron over $20,000 per year
Save the Town of Mentz over $11,000 per year
Provide a convenient and low-cost option to dispose of waste & bulk items
Create a consolidated refuse/recycling center where refuse is loaded onto transfer trailers and hauled off site daily
