The containers in your photos would IMHO qualify for street cabinet. A waste transfer station I would expect to be some biggish plant where trucks unload the waste, and where eventually recyclable ressources like metal are removed before it goes to the landfill / waste incinerating plant. something like this: https://www.stadt-werther.de/typo3temp/pics/84cad4e180.jpg http://in1.bilderbuch-koeln.de/bilder/k%C3%B6ln_ehrenfeld_entleeren_eines_m%C3%BCllwagens_awb_m%C3%BCllwagen_29fa427248_600x450xcr.jpeg this is (or was) a plant from the 80ies for sorting waste into different fractions of reusable material, it started as a pilot project but is unused for more than 20 years now because the federal government was pursuing a different strategy how to deal with waste then (they let citizens sort the waste beforehand and collect it already seperated rather than collecting a mixture and do the sorting in the plant): http://www.tagblatt.de/cms_media/module_bi/279/139768_0_org_640_434_18012_.jpg cheers, Martin
