We’re excited to share that our Landfill Cards have been updated with a New Permanent Card! The new cards are more durable, modern and designed for long term use.

What Does This Mean?

Paper Landfill Cards will NOT be mailed out annually with your Tax Bills as per previous years. This will be the only Landfill Card you need!

How The New Card Works?

• Each Card has a unique identification number, that card number is registred to a Property Owner.
• Scratch the CVC # off, so the Landfill Attendant can use upon entry.
• Landfill Attendants will use a handheld device to swipe the Landfill Card, instantly registering who is dropping off waste.
• The system tracks the volume of waste by recording the number of bags each household brings to the Landfill.
• * There is NO BAG LIMIT associated with the card, this will help us track how much household garbage is entering the Landfill for reporting purposes.

* Property Owners are responsible for providing these cards to their Tenants. *

* Landfill Cards are electronically activated annually, This means there is no need to send out new cards each year. *

* Residents MUST present their Landfill Card upon entry, each time they use the Landfill *

* Replacement Card Fee: $ 10.00 / Card*

AS OF OCTOBER 1, 2026 PAPER LANDFILL CARDS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
