The works

Transfer station

Some loads are gathered here before a longer journey. It is not where recycling happens.

What happens here

Some lorries tip their loads here instead of driving all the way to where they are recycled.

Loads are gathered in separate containers, then a bigger lorry takes them on, which means fewer journeys. Nothing is recycled here: it is a stop on the way.

This part is how it works in real life. Source: Veolia, transfer stations in Birmingham.
