Landfills
- Residents hauling waste from their own home have a 1,000-pound daily limit at the landfill. A heavier load is charged the $60-per-ton tipping fee on its whole weight.
- Waste from rental properties counts as commercial and is charged the tipping fee by weight. Waste from a vacation home you own and don’t rent out counts as residential.
- The landfill isn’t taking commercial construction or demolition waste while its demolition area is overfull. Residents can still bring it while space lasts.
- Loads that aren’t covered and tied down are charged an extra $40, or $75 for a repeat offense.
