Material Bans at the Mission Landfill

There is a 50% surcharge on loads containing banned materials. This initiative is in keeping with material bans implemented at Metro Vancouver waste management facilities, and is intended to prevent the disposal of recyclables and compostable materials. Please sort your load.

Litter Prevention Incentive

Surcharges on Unsecured Loads:
Litter cleanup is expensive. In an effort to reduce litter along access roads to the Mission landfill, unsecured loads will be surcharged $10 per load. Please tie down, tarp, enclose or otherwise secure your loads to avoid the surcharge. A secure load is one that is:

• contained in a covered vehicle, trunk or canopy, or 

• tarped (small and light-weight items, e.g., roofing shingles, gypsum board, Styrofoam™), or

• tied down (larger items, e.g., lumber & garbage bags).

It takes only one unsecured load to create a great deal of unsightly litter on access roads to the Mission landfill!
