Solid Waste Tipping Fee Increasing In 2025

The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority announces anย increase of the commercial Solid Waste tipping fee to $6.25/cubic yard beginning Jan. 1,ย 2025.
Solid Waste Tipping Fees are mandated by the Virgin Island Public Services Commission
and are assessed at solid waste facilities around the world to recover the cost of managing
solid waste processing and disposal sites. The VIWMA Tipping Fees are used to help pay forย the cost of waste disposal (i.e., operations, equipment purchases, environmental monitoringย costs, etc.).
Tipping Fees are assessed at the three VIWMA disposal facilities: the Anguilla Landfill
located on St. Croix, the Bovoni Landfill on St. Thomas, and the Susannaberg Transfer
Station on St. John.
