LANDFILL MISSION STATEMENT
We are committed to the best management of the Municipal waste through education, recycling and proper disposal in order to protect the environment for today and future generations. The Landfill is a Ministry of the Environment licensed facility and operates under the requirements of a Ministry “Certificate of Approval”. We strive to provide services in a cost effective and safe manner.
OUR GOALS
BAG TAGS: All household garbage entering the landfill must be bagged and tagged. The tags cost $25 per sheet of 10 orange tags for the Merrickville Ward, and $10 per sheet of 10 yellow tags for the Wolford Ward.
NON-BAGGED WASTE: If you are not certain that the landfill will take it, telephone the landfill on the days that it is opened.
ENTRY PERMIT: In order to enter the landfill, each resident, tenant and business owner must show their landfill (laminated) entry permit. The permit is available free of charge from the municipal office. It is assigned to the license plate of the vehicle entering the landfill.
If you are a contractor or transporting another resident's garbage, you need to complete in-full a Contractor Landfill Permit. Note: you no longer have to bring the form into the Municipal Office; bring it directly to the landfill.
The Public Works Department has two locations: 317 Brock Street West (access from Read Street); and 495 Roses Bridges Road.
The Department is responsible for: summer and winter road maintenance; snow removal; paving; grading; culverts; ditching; sidewalks; etc. Some of the work may be contracted out.
The Department is also responsible for managing the Landfill (3512 County Road 16), and for maintenance of the two Community Centres (and their respective fields) and of the ice rink and ice house.
At different times throughout the year, work hours may vary depending on work load and scheduling.
