Spring cleaning in autumn?
The City of Greater Sudbury is waiving all residential tipping fees at landfill and waste diversion sites this week.
Until Sept. 25, residents can dump household items free of charge from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Friday and from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
The city is asking residents to sort their loads for proper disposal and recycling before arriving at the landfill site, with some categories including blue box recyclables, scrap metal and appliances, furniture, electronics, concrete, tires, leaf and yard trimming and regular household garbage.
Non-residents do not have access to the landfill sites and proof of address may be required.
The city expects longer than usual wait times and has set up a live camera at the Sudbury landfill site so residents can see how busy it is before they make the trip. The live feed is available online by clicking here.
