About the Landfill

The Bureau's mission is to provide a waste management system that focuses on the convenient separation of recyclables and reuse of discarded materials to minimize the need to dispose of these materials at the landfill. Our vision is to preserve the life of this valuable asset as long as possible to serve the needs of our citizens well into the future. Our goal is to manage the landfill operation in a safe, efficient and customer friendly manner and in compliance with all local, state and federal regulatory requirements.
