Rubbish Removal
Do you have materials that are not accepted or too big to dispose of in the City's residential curbside collection programs? There are many safe alternative disposal options available!
Transfer Stations & Landfills
The City of White Rock does not have a large item pick up. Large household items for disposal can either be taken to a Waste Transfer Station for a fee or residents can contact a disposal company that will take items away for a fee.

Community Clean-Up Projects
Metro Vancouver invites non-profit or volunteer groups to apply for a waiver of tipping fees for loads of garbage from community clean-up projects delivered to a Metro Vancouver disposal site. Metro Vancouver recognizes the important work of these groups in helping keep our communities clean and in protecting the environment.
