Kelowna Landfill Tipping Fees – Effective January 1, 2025
Most garbage collected in Kelowna ends up at the Glenmore Landfill. Whether you’re renting a dumpster for a renovation or a cleanout, it helps to know where your waste goes and what fees apply. Here’s what to expect in 2025.
Starting January 1, 2025, Kelowna City Council has approved updates to the Solid Waste Management Bylaw, resulting in new tipping fees at the Glenmore Landfill.
These updated rates reflect inflation, rising processing costs and increased tipping fees at recovery sites.
New Glenmore Landfill Rates (per tonne):
-
Garbage: $106
-
Gypsum drywall: $200
-
Clean concrete & asphalt: $50
-
Dirty concrete: $70
-
Asbestos: $275
-
Culled cherries: $25
Recycled concrete and asphalt are now sold at $8 per tonne plus applicable tax.
These rates are fully transparent and match those publicly listed on the City of Kelowna website.
Earth-Wise Waste Management adds a 10% landfill handling fee to the standard landfill rates shown above. This covers the cost of transporting and properly disposing of your waste at regional facilities like the Glenmore Landfill.

I can't say enough good things about Earthwise. As a busy landscape contractor, having a reliable bin service is essential and Joe consistently delivers. He is always friendly, efficient, and accommodating, making working with him a breeze. Earthwise has saved my bacon on multiple occasions by providing bins quickly, often when I need them placed in a tight spot.

After working with many other bin/trucking companies in the past, Earthwise is an easy pick for our preferred choice of material transport and recommendation to any other contractors, home owners or friends in need!

Absolutely amazing customer service and easy to get a hold of. Super experienced and Joe was super attentive to the job site .Want bins on time everytime, this is the place!

I have nothing but good to say about my experience with Joe at Earthwise waste management. a true professional in the construction industry. I called Joe out of the blue when I needed a dumpster, twice, for farm clean up. I would highly recommend Joe and his company to anyone looking for dumpster services. No, I am not related to Joe. And I have not been paid for this review either. Ha ha I am simply happy that I made the right call when I was looking for waste management services in Vernon. A satisfied customer. Dave

Joe was here within 2 hours to assess the job. Here with equipment and crew the following morning! The demolition job was done so efficiently and within budget that he also fit in 2 extra days of backhoe work for me. Much appreciated Joe! I'll be calling you again soon!

Earthwise Waste Management was absolutely amazing to work with! We did a big reno and needed all our demo materials along with other junk hauled away. Joe was friendly, answered all my questions, was prompt and my daughter loved getting to watch the big truck drop off and pick up our bin. Great pricing, especially for us locals out in Fintry! It's hard to find services that come out this way. Will definitely use again in the future. Thank you Joe!

I rang Joe for a large bin, he was at my place within an hour and a half. Other businesses 2,4 days or even a week away. Pickup was instant and very professional. Thanks Joe.

I’ve known the owner for many years and he runs his business with high attention to detail and the customers needs at the forefront. He is reliable and trustworthy and always willing to go the extra mile. Give him a opportunity and he won’t disappoint!
