 How high can we load the bin?
It's important to make sure your bin is loaded level
or less. This allows for our drivers to tarp and transport
your load in a safe manner. We appreciate your co-operation
in helping us abide by the road safety standards set
forth by The Province of British Columbia.

 BANNED MATERIALS
- METRO VANCOUVER
Metro Vancouver has banned some materials from the
landfill, effective January 2008. For a complete
list of these materials please visit this
website.
As a waste management company, we believe it is our
responsibility to ensure that materials are properly
recycled whenever possible. The less that goes into
our landfills, the better. We want to help protect
the environment because we live here, too.
Please note that commercial loads are inspected
by disposal site employees for high percentages of
banned, recyclable materials. Loads that arrive at
the disposal facilities containing 5% of corrugated
cardboard, newspaper and office paper (by volume),
or banned materials are assessed a surcharge.
