Kelowna landfill tipping fees set to rise in 2026
Kelowna City Council has approved changes to the Solid Waste Management Bylaw that will increase tipping fees at the Glenmore Landfill beginning January 1, 2026.
Wood waste will rise from $25 to $30 per tonne, shingles from $150 to $170 per tonne, and mattresses from $15 to $18 each. Wholesale compost rates will also increase, with prices varying by cubic yards purchased and location.
Regular garbage tipping fees will remain at $106 per tonne in 2026, with a scheduled increase to $108 per tonne on January 1, 2027. City officials said the adjustments reflect inflation and rising operating costs. Minimum charges will not change.
