Plan Your Visit
For dedicated/mixed loads of garbage, a fee applies. If your load also contains recyclable materials, the fee applies to the entire load.
To avoid this fee:
- You can circle the site twice; unloading your chargeable items first, then the free recyclables on your second pass
- Separate garbage from the recyclables when packing your vehicle, so it's quicker to unload
- Consider bringing a load of recyclables one day and a load containing garbage on another
- Consider managing additional waste through your curbside collection by purchasing bag tags from your local city or town
