Disposal of Asbestos
Asbestos containing material (ACM) is accepted at Hartland Landfill. Material containing any concentration of asbestos requires an appointment and laboratory analysis for disposal at Hartland as per the definition of asbestos in Bylaw 3881 (Hartland Landfill Tipping Fee and Regulation Bylaw).
To bring ACM to Hartland complete the following steps:
- Remove and package material properly. Read the Removal and Packaging section below for more detailed instructions.
- Book a disposal appointment (scheduled Monday-Friday between 9am-2pm) by calling 250.360.3410. Messages are responded to within 24 hours on weekdays.
- Have your laboratory analysis paperwork ready to submit.
- Transport waste. Review the Transport section below for more details.
- Follow site safety rules upon arrival. All customers bringing asbestos waste must wear a high visibility vest and safety boots due to the presence of equipment at the disposal site.
Suspension of Accepting Out of Region Asbestos
Hartland Landfill is suspending acceptance of out of region asbestos until January 2, 2025. While the CRD has historically accepted out of region asbestos as a courtesy to adjacent regional districts that do not have the ability to dispose of it within their own borders, Hartland Landfill is now constrained with its own disposal capacity as we work to prepare the next cell of the landfill.
