Residents can dispose of eligible items FREE OF CHARGE during Landfill Amnesty Day! Bring your yard cleanup, brush, outdoor waste, and bulk items that have been sitting outside in your yard to the landfill and take advantage of this one-day opportunity to declutter and beautify your property.

Clean up, and clear out your yard, and show your community pride before Homecoming! Together, let’s make Howick look its best for 170 years of celebration.

Household waste and recycling are subject to regular tipping fees and are not included in the Amnesty Day. Amnesty items are up to the discretion of the Landfill Attendant.
For anybody unable to make it to the landfill on this day, please call the Township Office to pre- arrange a pickup and to confirm what you have to dispose of.
