Landfills & Transfer Sites
We want your feedback!
The County strives to provide residents with the best possible service. We are looking for feedback from County residents on our landfill operations. Please take a few moments to complete the online Landfill Site Feedback Form and share your input with us.
There are seven landfill and transfer station sites in Prince Edward County. For locations, view the chart below or our landfill map.
County landfills are not licensed to receive:
- Materials containing asbestos or waste containing PCBs.
- Household hazardous waste materials
- Vape pen cartridges (hazardous waste)
A detailed listing of what is and isn’t accepted at each landfill site and certain disposal costs can be found in the chart below. Click here to view a full list of fees and charges related to waste management.
Electronic Waste Now Accepted at Two Waste Sites
Electronic waste is accepted at the South Marysburgh (1132 Old Milford Road) and Sophiasburgh (35 County Road 14) waste sites during regular hours of operation.
Hazardous waste will not be accepted.
Waste sites will only permit entry for large loads up until 3:45 pm on each operating day. Smaller loads may also be denied entry after 3:45 pm due to site capacity and/or traffic volume. This will ensure patrons have ample time to offload their waste before site closure at 4 pm.
Landfills and transfer sites accept cash only. Debit/credit payments are not available.
Mulch Giveaway Program at the South Marysburgh Landfill: Mulch will be available while supplies last between 8 am and 4 pm during regular operations of the landfill. The program will remain in operation each Saturday while supplies last. Learn more.
