Controlled wastes are disposed of in designated trenches at Hartland Landfill and covered daily to minimize nuisance, odours, and scavenging by birds.
Example of items that are considered controlled waste include:
- Large quantities of animal fecal waste
- Sharps from residents
- Deceased animals
- RVs and camper trailers
- Boats
- Non-asbestos containing vermiculite insulation
- Contaminated, non-asbestos containing drywall
- Knotweed (invasive species)
- Clean (uncontaminated) demolition waste
(see separate disposal permit requirements)
Bylaw 3881 [PDF/331KB] (Hartland Landfill Tipping Fee and Regulation Bylaw) governs the disposal of controlled wastes.
How do I dispose of controlled waste?
Controlled waste disposal at Hartland Landfill requires a permit. To apply for a permit, please complete and submit the application below.
- Application for Controlled Waste-FILLABLE [PDF/655KB] - Fillable Form
- Application for Controlled Waste-PRINTABLE [PDF/108KB] - Printable Form
Once a permit has been issued, an appointment must be made for disposal. Controlled wastes are accepted between the hours of 9am and 2pm, Monday to Friday. A minimum of 24 hours’ notice is generally required prior to delivery of the wastes to the landfill.
Upon arrival at the landfill, the person or company hauling the waste will need to present a copy of the permit with the Waste Carrier Section filled out for each load delivered.
Cover Your Load: All loads must be covered and secured in order to reduce litter on roadways. Vehicles arriving with uncovered and/or unsecured loads will be charged double the normal fee or be subject to a fine.
Analytical testing
You may be required to have a sample of your waste submitted to a laboratory for analytical testing to ensure that the waste meets the controlled waste requirements. Please contact the CRD if you have questions about what type of testing is necessary.
