The Rappahannock Regional Solid Waste Management Board (R-Board) is proud of its service to its customers in Stafford and Fredericksburg. Our work to be responsible stewards of the environment led to our certification as an Exemplary Environmental Enterprise in Virginia. This means that we have a good compliance history, a fully-implemented environmental management system and pollution prevention program in place with demonstrated performance. Thanks to you, our customers, our recycling rate remains high, and we thank you for partnering with us in our commitment to protect the environment. In addition to being good environmental stewards, we are also fiscally responsible, and no tax dollars from the City or the County support the landfill costs.
To help us continue to enhance our service, the R-Board is implementing a fee for residents using the convenience centers on Eskimo Hill Road and Belman Road effective March 2, 2015, for trash disposal. Visitors to the landfill will have the option of using a coupon voucher or an annual pass. Cash payment for a one-time visit can be made at the scalehouse located inside the commercial entrance to the landfill. Recycling will remain free for the items listed below. Visitors may purchase coupon books or an annual pass at the locations listed below during normal business hours, beginning Wednesday, February 4, 2015.
