Why you must show a valid Waste Disposal Card or Waste Site Access Card each time you visit
By law, the Township of Minden Hills is required to confirm that those using the Waste Disposal Sites are residents of Minden Hills. We must also ensure that the waste that is being deposited at each site, originated within the Township. To ensure we comply with this requirement, Site Attendants check for a valid Waste Disposal Card. You will not be able to enter a Waste Disposal Site without one.
