The Newell Regional Solid Waste Management Authority (NRSWMA) was established through a partnership of all urban municipalities within the County of Newell, including the County itself, to develop a centralized regional landfill facility. This facility ensures the safe and environmentally responsible collection of waste for recycling or disposal. Please note that fees may apply.

In addition to the landfill, several solid waste and recycling transfer stations are available throughout the County. For a map of locations, please refer to the following link: County of Newell Recycling Facilities, Depots & Trailers 2012
