Two Bags Free
The Two Bags Free program is offered to residents of the Municipality of the District of Lunenburg. Residents of the Towns of Lunenburg, Bridgewater and Mahone Bay are not eligible for the program.

Residents may bring two garbage bags to the Community Recycling Centre for free. Loads which consist of more than two garbage bags will be charged for the entire load. Waste may only be accepted in bags no larger than 42 inches wide (107 cm) by 48 inches long (122 cm) and bags must be securely closed at the top.

Residents must provide a NS Drivers License or other identification bearing civic address to confirm residence within the Municipality of the District of Lunenburg at the weigh scales. For more information call 543-2991.

Illegal Dumpsite Tipping Fee Waiver
A tipping fee waiver is in effect for property owners who wish to clean-up illegally dumped waste on their property.

Program details may be obtained from the Recycling Centre. It is suggested that residents arrange a dumpsite visit to ensure waste is sorted and deemed acceptable according to Recycling Centre site regulations. For more information, please call 543-2991.

Compost Sales
Residents and businesses please be advised that compost will not be available for purchase during the 2011 season, effective immediately.

Our available compost is being used for a landfill remediation project. The compost will be used in an innovative way to protect the new landfill cover that will be placed to permanently close our cells. Its use will be less expensive than more conventional methods for landfill remediation.

For more information please call 543-2991.
