Enhanced Temporary Waste Services Due to Flooding

To help all those impacted by the recent flooding, the Town of Grimsby has worked with partners at the Niagara Region to increase waste services for our residents.

For all flood-affected residents, curbside garbage limits are lifted for flood-related waste from Aug. 10 – Aug. 14 on regular collection days, and all tipping fees are waived at the Niagara Road 12 Landfill from Aug. 7 – Aug. 15 (maximum load of one pickup truck or trailer).

Residents are not required to book flood-waste related large items for curbside collection. There is no limit to the number of large items you can set out curbside on your scheduled collection day.

If visiting the Niagara Road 12 Landfill for the waived tipping fees:

• Bring identification showing you live in the eligible area
• Maximum load is one pickup truck or trailer per household
• Cross the inbound and outbound weigh scales for processing
• Follow all site rules, including sorting materials into the appropriate disposal areas
• Expect longer wait times due to higher volumes
• Vehicles may be metered onto the site to help manage traffic flow and maintain safety
