The South Central Iowa Solid Waste Agency (SCISWA) Landfill in Tracy will close to the public Monday April 24th for maintenance and reopen Tuesday, May 2nd.

Replacement of the landfill scale will disrupt regular operations and the agency will not be able to weigh incoming loads of residential waste. SCISWA encourages residents to use curbside collection programs available in their communities during this time.

Jennifer Frampton, program coordinator at the landfill tells KNIA/KRLS News, “We will still accept waste from our charge accounts, so all of our haulers will be able to bring in their waste. So we will not accept solid waste or other materials from residents during that week. We will be replacing the platform scale that we use to weigh incoming and outgoing loads of garbage.”

The landfill will reopen for residential waste disposal Tuesday, May 2nd.
