Everything we had to look up
so you do not have to
Rates, bylaws and gate rules for moving material on southern Vancouver Island. Every number on these pages is one the operator publishes about itself, in the unit the operator states, with the source next to it. Where a site publishes nothing, we say so and give you the phone number.
Maintained references
Every published tipping fee at 9 sites across three regional districts, plus the private tips, in the unit each operator actually states.
5 yards publish a full price list. Four sell by the cubic yard, one sells by the tonne, and the sticker prices look almost identical. Read the unit.
No regional district on southern Vancouver Island accepts clean soil. Not one. Here is the list of gates that do, and the bylaws that say why the rest will not.
Three districts, three completely different answers on rubble. Whether the slab has rebar in it decides most of them before price does.
BC axle weight groupings, spring load restrictions, municipal permits and the CSR soil relocation notification rules.
What the hourly rate actually covers, how portal-to-portal billing works, and the questions worth asking before you book.
What a trucking site needs to do, from someone running one.
Calculators
The disposal cost calculator runs off the same 40-site dataset as the reference pages, and refuses to convert between tonnes and cubic yards for any material where nobody publishes a defensible density.
Would rather someone else sorted it
We haul across the Cowichan Valley and Greater Victoria and we already know which gate takes what. Published rates, Net 15.
