The Thompson Nicola Regional District (TNRD) are advising the dates of the upcoming 2017 Free Disposal Days for those who live within the TNRD.
Residents may bring ONE FREE LOAD PER HOUSEHOLD to their local Eco-Depot or Transfer Station on event day.
One load is defined as a maximum of one eight (8) foot pick-up truck box OR one eight (8) foot trailer.
Residents can save money on materials normally charged disposal fees for such as cooling appliances, tires on rim, mattresses, furniture, demolition/construction waste, wood waste, roofing shingles, and household garbage.
The free load on Free Disposal Day applies to residential customers only. Regular disposal fees apply for all business/commercial loads.
Household Hazardous Waste Round-ups (HHWR) give residents an opportunity to safely and properly dispose of materials that are toxic, corrosive, reactive or ignitable. Containers may be unlabeled and substances unknown.
Examples include adhesives, paint thinners, chemicals, cleaners, mercury, antifreeze, herbicides, pesticides, paint, oils, and gasoline. The event is for residential waste only. Business and commercial hazardous waste will not be accepted.
