DISPOSAL FEES AND POLICIES

Waste Management Division
Lane County Department of Public Works

Please Note:  As of August 1st 2009 new disposal rates will be in effect. Click here to view rates.


The Glenwood and Florence disposal sites use a volume-based fee for most public loads, and weight-based fees for commercial loads and certain other loads.

Fees for all loads at rural sites other than Glenwood and Florence are volume-based. You can find volume-based rates by clicking here.

The weight- and volume-based fees are correlated as closely as possible, so disposal fees for a given load will be the same regardless of the site you use.
