The Elliot Lake Landfill is open to the public during our regular hours. You can dispose large items and items that are not collected during our weekly, curbside garbage collection.

Location and hours

You can find the landfill on Scott Road which is located near the intersection of Esten Drive North and Pearson Drive.

Our hours of operation are:

  • Mondays to Fridays: 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
  • Saturdays: 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
  • Sundays and holidays: Closed

Fee structure

Our landfill operates on a weight based tipping fee structure. We weigh each vehicle at the times of your entrance and exit to determine the weight of the waste you deposited during tour visit.

Fees

  • Household, construction, demolition and bulk materials: $66 per tonne or minimum fee $6.00
  • Contaminated material: $250 per load
  • Appliances (To have freon removed, contact Algoma Appliance Repairs at 705849-8453 or Ernie's Plumbing at 705-356-7106): No charge for disposal once tagged
  • Scrap metal (sorted): No charge for disposal
  • Grass clippings and yard trimmings (not including branches, trees or roots): No charge
  • Household waste (three garbage bag limit): No charge
  • Other charges please see our user fees

How to pay

You can pay landfill fees at the landfill site only. You can pay with:

  • Interac Debit Card
  • VISA
  • Mastercard

We do not accept cash.

Tipping fee dump passes from the old payment system in 2012, can be used as credit toward fees at the landfill till June 1, 2019, but they have no cash value. We do not offer change if the weighted fee is less than the face value of the tipping fee dump pass presented. Any outstanding tipping fee dump passes after June 1, 2019 will not be honored.
