Whitemouth-Reynolds-North Whiteshell Waste Management Facility
Waste, burnables and recycling materials are collected at the Whitemouth - Reynolds - North Whiteshell Waste Management Facility for proper sorting and organizing of waste, recycling, burnables, and hazardous waste items.
Operations Staff at the Facility take great pride in ensuring the participating Municipality’s waste and recycling needs are met which are regulated by the Province of Manitoba and Manitoba Climate and Conservation.
The Whitemouth-Reynold-North Whiteshell Waste Management Facility accepts a number of materials and items for proper disposal. Please view below to review a list of accepted items at this facility.
Updates:
- We are seeing a sizable increase in the value of corrugated cardboard (i.e. Amazon delivery boxes). Please keep up the good work and keep that cardboard coming in.

All residents of Whitemouth and Reynolds have been given ID cards in their Tax Statements. The QR card takes you to the waste management website. If you do not have a card, you will be considered a non-resident and will be subject to a minimum $65.00 fee for waste. Only Demolition waste needs to be paid for by residents. Contractors and haulers will be required to have a copy of the demolition or building permit to show the material is from our catchment area, otherwise, it will be billed as non-resident. | |
| We will be accepting debit and credit for easier payment and will no longer be accepting cash. Invoices will still be issued for multiple loads if required. These changes are an effort to track where all materials are coming from, specifically which RM, and not which individual. We do not accept material from outside the catchment area. | |

About Our Facility
In the early 1990's, waste disposal regulations were changing and many traditional 'garbage dumps’ were no longer able to meet the requirements for a modern day landfill cell. With these changes in mind, through a joint effort of the Rural Municipalities of Whitemouth and Reynolds, the Whitemouth - Reynolds Waste Management Facility partnership was formed in 1993.
Originally, the facility was to have a recycling depot and landfill. The facility was designed to meet these new regulatory standards. Long before a shovel was put in the ground a new idea was born. It was decided then to step away as much as possible from our dependency on simply throwing everything away. The Facility became a member of some of the Stewardship programs that were available then. The present day Waste Management Facility began to take shape.
In 1996, the northern region of the Whiteshell Provincial Park approached the committee to join as a partner with the facility, as their landfills were no longer acceptable. In November of 1997, an agreement was reached and signed by the three parties, creating the Whitemouth - Reynolds - North Whiteshell Waste Management Facility partnership. On October 1, 1998 the three landfills that serviced the Rural Municipality of Whitemouth were closed and all wet and dry waste from the Municipality was brought to the facility. On June 1, 1999 the Rural Municipality of Reynolds closed its seven landfills as did the North Whiteshell, shutting down half of their sites. By September 30, 1999 all fourteen landfill sites that used to service the three districts where shut down and no longer in use.
Today the Facility is a member of several more Stewardship Programs. These programs range from the collection and recycling of everyday household and personal electronics to household hazardous waste. Through the efforts of these programs and the diligence of the population of Whitemouth, Reynolds and the North Whiteshell Provincial Park, we have been able to divert thousands of tonnes of waste away from our landfill.
