The Solid Waste Disposal Facility (SWDF) is located off airport road, near the Inuvik golf course. The Town contracts a full-time attendant to supervise facility operations and provide capping on a regular basis. Individual households can bring garbage and other waste to the solid waste site free of charge. However, solid waste tipping fees apply for commercial, industrial, government and institutional users.
