The City of Moose Jaw is reminding residents to be respectful to City employees.

A release from the City states that there have been incidents where "customers are being verbally aggressive to the staff at the landfill" during the free use period.

People have turned up with trailers or commercial vehicles at the landfill expecting to also have the $10 fee waived, but, the exemption is only for vehicles a half ton or smaller dropping trash off at the dump. Occasions, where people have learned they have to pay for the landfill and turning their frustrations towards landfill employees, have happened too many times, warranting a release from the City. 

The Cty of Moose Jaw has a Respectful Workplace Policy where verbal or physical abuse will not be tolerated.

Again, the the fee waiver is applicable for 1/2 ton and smaller vehicles. Trailers and large commercial vehicles will continue to be weighed and charged at the per tonne weight for the material being disposed of.
