District stresses that the landfill's time is running out as it opens a new cell

Posted: 2025-01-23 14:19:09 By: thebay

The District of Muskoka announced today that it is officially opening Cell #4 at the Rosewarne Landfill.

The first load of material will be placed in the new cell during a ceremony on Monday, signaling the start of operations.

While this expansion adds capacity, the District warns that space at the landfill is becoming limited, with only 5 cells left to open.  Estimates suggest less than 15 years of usage remaining.

To help extend the landfill’s life, the District is transitioning to a clear garbage bag program, encouraging waste diversion practices.
