Planning for Waste Management
Options to consider for recycling C&D debris and any excess building materials:
- Self-haul source-separated materials to a County facility for recycling.
- Re-use or donate materials.
- Employ a waste hauler for roll-off bin service.
The applicant is responsible for ensuring the recycling requirements are met for all waste generated on site.
If you intend to self-haul C&D debris,
Shafter-Wasco Landfill fees are $55 per ton for material that is not source-separated and $5 per ton for source-separated material. It pays to recycle!
NOTE: Contractors working on non-covered projects are encouraged to divert materials from construction and demolition projects to the maximum extent possible.
Penalties
Final building permits will not be approved without documentation proving diversion and recycling requirements are met.
