Sechelt Landfill Closed
In order to complete the new drop-off area, the Sechelt Landfill will be closed from September 17 to 19 (September 20 is a regularly scheduled closure day).
While the landfill is closed, residents can either hold onto their materials until the landfill reopens, or take them to the Pender Harbour Transfer Station during operating hours. Arrangements are being made to accept a limited amount of commercial garbage during the three day closure.
