The Quesnel Municipal Landfill collects tipping fees based on waste type and weight in order to offset the site's maintenance and operational costs. The current landfill rates may be found in the Comprehensive Fees and Charges Bylaw.

The landfill accepts payment by cash, debit card, and credit card.

For the latest long-term conceptual plans regarding the landfill site, please refer to the 2019 Quesnel Landfill Strategic Plan Summary.

The following types of waste require special disposal procedures at the landfill:

• Asbestos - Please contact the Public Works Department.
• Animal Carcasses - Please contact the Public Works Department.
• Gypsum (drywall) - Small quantities only. Report to the scale attendant for instruction.
• Rock and Concrete - Report to the scale attendant for instruction.
• Ashes - Place ashes in the black metal bin to the left of the green garbage bins.
• Trailer Shells and Campers - Campers must be stripped of appliances and drained of fluids before arriving at the landfill. As these shells are landfilled with household garbage, please remove as many recyclable materials from your camper as possible. Report to the scale attendant for instruction.
• Wrecked Vehicles - All wrecked vehicles must be drained of oil, coolant, and fuel before arriving at the landfill and rubber tires must be removed and taken to your tire dealer. No boats or trailers are permitted in the metal recycling pile. Report to the scale attendant for inspection and instruction.
