COUNTY TO MAKE REPAIRS AT LONG KEY TRANSFER STATION; TEMPORARY CLOSURE TO TAKE PLACE MAY 3-18

LONG KEY, FL – Monroe County Solid Waste will temporarily close the Long Key Transfer Station tipping floor from May 3-18 for essential safety repairs due to a structural issue requiring immediate attention.

During this period, no garbage disposal activity will be allowed on the tipping floor. However, the Long Key Transfer Station will continue to accept vegetation and yard waste, which is handled at a separate on-site location that does not use the tipping floor.

Signage has been posted at the Long Key Transfer Station, and local businesses who regularly utilize the site have been notified to use the Key Largo or Cudjoe Key transfer stations while the repairs are being made.

“While this temporary disruption poses challenges, the safety of staff and those who use the facility remains the top priority,” said Director of Solid Waste Cheryl Sullivan.
