Tipping fees at the Pemberton Transfer Station will increase as of November 1 this year.
The Whistler Daily Post is a new, independent online newspaper for Whistler and Pemberton.
The Pemberton Transfer Station tipping fees were last increased in 2016. The new fees for the household waste is as follows:
Small bag (40 L or ≤ 9 kg): Rate will be $1.50
Large bag (80 L or ≤ 18 kg ): $3
Loose/unbagged (minimum charge $5) $165.00 per tonne
The complete list of the tipping fees increase can be seen here.
The 2022 bylaw revision includes adjustments to the fees and charges that more accurately reflect current costs and service levels. They also align with the disposal costs across the region and encouraging diversion, said SLRD.

It was subsequently approved by the SLRD Board on July 27.
