Residential Spring Clean-Up Week

Use of the landfill site will be free of charge from May 9 to May 15, 2026, closed May 10, May 12, and May 14 inclusive for residents of the Township of Terrace Bay. It will resume operation with regular hours and fees Saturday May 16, 2026. Public Works will do townsite pick up from residential properties as per the schedule noted below Monday, May 11 to Thursday May 14, 2026, inclusive with no exceptions. Pick up applied to residential properties only, commercial and business properties are not included. 

Il n'y aura pas de ramassage de pneus, de matériaux de démolition ou de grandes quantités de béton (c.-à-d. trottoirs ou anciennes fondations). Les pneus, les matériaux de démolition ou le béton peuvent être livrés au site d'enfouissement par le propriétaire de la propriété ou de l'entreprise et les tarifs habituels s'appliqueront.

Residents are asked to place rubbish close to the roadside and in proper containers where necessary to permit easy access for loading by 7:00 a.m. on their scheduled pick-up day.

Public Works will not pick up derelict vehicles, i.e., old cars, trucks, or trailers. These items can be delivered to the landfill site by the residential owner and regular tipping fees will apply.

Freezers or refrigerators require certification that refrigerant has been removed before they will be accepted for pick up. Freezers or refrigerators not certified and drained can be brought to the landfill anytime for a fee of $100.
