Very clean facility, kudos to everyone that works there.

Every time we use this dump, they overcharge. You can see their scale going out is always 50 or 60, they say they’ll zero it out, but why not—>have that ready? And you can’t see the scale going in so did you zero it out there? Or did you add 60kg to my way in, so when you zero out on my way out I’m —60 + whatever I deposited..
It’s funny going in with 10kg of weight but then being charged for 80.. how do you keep data integrity that way? Aside from scamming people out of money, how does it benefit you to be sneaky? I guess when you go there take a second have them stand there and make sure the scale is on zero and that they weigh your properly because they can’t be trusted apparently. .

Friendly staff. Sometimes there is a massive wait. But that's because they only have dial up for the debit. It would be nice if the government got them better internet. 👍 But in all honesty, don't go during peak hours. It just gets messy.

What a well organized facility!

I guess that's the 'management' part of the name...but that's only part the story here.

It's people that make things work minute on minute.

This facility takes your excess: the people make the sort, the stops, the starts, the truck moves safe...with smiles as lubricant.

All too soon we'll be resorting, mining these sites.

Let this operation be a model for the woe begone mining industry in terms of respect for the land.

Great dump. Fabulous wildlife. Compelling scenery for the “end of times”, late stage capitalism, consumerism dumpster fire we find ourselves in. Highly recommend for getting perspective on humanity.

Awesome theres recycling, and people to assist wherever needed; however, I brought was found floating in the ocean (Styrofoam) and to my surprise there is no place to put it without paying. I wish they had some kind of spot for this that free to give incentive to clean our water ways. Otherwise good, and friendly staff.

This place is open 363 days of the year. Christmas and new years day are the only days they are closed. 830 am to 530 PM 7 days a week. It has a recycling center and a steel and tire bin. There is a fridge drop off for a charge as they have to take the freon out of the fridges and freezers. If you have oils and toxic stuff to drop off the guy is there every Tues and wens 930 to 530

Just so glad our city has these services available. For those who don't know, there a full recycling center located at the landfill. After pulling in, it's to the immediate right. There are huge bins for metal where you can dump things like bed frames, and receptacles for pretty well everything you can think of. Cardboard, plastic, glass, styrofoam, soft plastics (plastic bags, food wrappers, etc) batteries, hazardous waste (like cans of paint, chemicals, etc)
