LOCAL DISPOSAL OPTIONS
How to dispose of common items in Hinton
Mattresses, couches and household furniture
Furniture can be brought to the regional landfill rather than placed beside the town garbage container. The landfill lists residential furniture among the materials accepted without a disposal charge, subject to current site rules.
Appliances, electronics, paint, propane and other special items
Appliances, e-waste, passenger tires, batteries, used oil, paint and metals have dedicated residential diversion routes at the landfill. Sort these items out of general garbage before arrival.
Renovation, construction and yard debris
The curb cart does not accept bulky or extra-heavy material such as sod, dirt or concrete. Construction loads over 500 kg may be charged at the regional landfill, so weigh-heavy project material separately.
