The Sechelt Landfill is Getting a New Scale

The Sechelt Landfill will be closed next week on January 13 and 14, 2025 to replace the temporary scale with a new permanent one. Due to heavy machinery on site, the landfill will not be accessible to the public for the duration of the work.

The SCRD is confident the project will be completed within the planned dates. However, if a late start is required on Wednesday January 15, 2025 or if it is possible to open the site earlier than planned, information will be shared via the SCRD’s website and Facebook channel.

The most up-to-date information will be available at www.scrd.ca/landfill.

The new scale will be located by the scale house in the regular location.   While the layout will be familiar to regular users, we would like to remind the public that everyone is required to drive slowly, on and off the scale and around the site for the safety of staff and the community.

The Pender Harbour Transfer Station is open on Monday and Wednesday but will not accept loads larger than 20 yards. Directions and further information about the transfer station is available at www.scrd.ca/transfer-station/.

The SCRD understands that this causes an inconvenience to both business and residential customers of the site and appreciates their understanding.
