Landfill Tipping Fees

Effective January 1, 2009 Oxford County Landfill tipping fees will increase from $60.00/metric tonne to $61.32/metric tonne. There is a $10.00 minimum and the site remains cash only!

Information

Branches and limbs will be collected provided they are in a "Bundle". A "Bundle" means "an assemblage of like material, securely tied together. Bundles shall NOT exceed three feet in length or 40 lbs. (18 kg.) in weight". They must also have a full "BAG TAG" attached.

Failure to abide by the recycling rules will result in recyclables NOT being collected.

The Town and CAMI operate a SPECIAL WASTE DAY (Household Hazardous Waste) in June of each year. Please look for further flyers or advertising concerning special programs and/or new programs.

The Provincial Government has mandated that all municipalities in the province shall obtain a 50% waste diversion from landfill sites. We hope that this expansion of the program will help Ingersoll toward a higher percentage. Our 1999 percentage was approximately 28%.

The County of Oxford Landfill operates six days a week.
