Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you service?

We provide waste management solutions across Northeast BC and Alberta, with our base in Dawson Creek, BC.

What type of waste can go in a front-load container?

Front-load bins are for municipal solid waste (MSW) or cardboard. We set up separate bins for each — cardboard must not be mixed with MSW.

For MSW, no oils, liquids, tires, metal, or concrete are allowed.

Can I mix waste in a roll-off bin?

Yes, you can mix waste types in a roll-off bin, but depending on volume and material it may be more cost-effective to separate. For example, wood, metal, and cardboard can often be recycled separately at a lower disposal rate than if mixed into general waste.

Not allowed: Hazardous waste, oils, fuels, liquids, chemicals, tires, asbestos, contaminated soil, or pressurized containers.

How are dump fees charged?

Dump fees are charged back at cost* once material is delivered to the landfill or recycling facility. The rate depends on the waste type and tonnage, as determined by the disposal facility.

What are your rental rates?

We offer flexible rentals: daily, weekly, and monthly.

 

Rates vary by container type and duration.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes, a deposit or approved credit application is required before bins or services are dispatched.

Do you offer contracts?

Yes. We provide service contracts for long-term or recurring needs, including front-load pickups, municipal programs, and industrial projects.

How quickly can I get a bin delivered?

With our six tandem roll-off trucks and 24/7 dispatch, bins can often be delivered the same day or next day depending on availability.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept credit card, EFT, and cheque. Credit terms are available with an approved credit application.

How will I receive my invoice?

Invoices are sent by email with supporting documentation (such as landfill slips) once disposal is complete.
