Disposal area regulations (PDF) ensure residents can use the facilities efficiently. The disposal area flyer (PDF) includes a map and frequently asked questions. Use of the area is free to all residents of the City with a resisted disposal permit (see below). Contractors must pay a per ton fee to dispose of trash, leaves and branches, and other materials and must purchase coupons at the Department of Community Services counter to do so.

Residents must obtain a resident disposal/parking permit through the online permit system from the Parking Services Agency to use the Transfer Station.
