Waste Disposal Fees

Waste Disposal Fees are payable by Debit or Credit Card. Fees must be paid in full before any materials can be off loaded.

Commercial landfill accounts are available for businesses. The commercial landfill account application form must be completed and submitted for approval. Review of applications generally takes 7-10 days but this timing may vary.

Note: Fees based on tonnage can only be calculated at the Maple Lake Waste Management site when the scale is operational. If scaled weights cannot be calculated, fees will be calculated based on volume (cubic yards). Mattresses and furniture will be charged at "per piece" rates at all sites.
