Description
Understand the true cost of landfill disposal with EREF’s authoritative 2024 tipping fee analysis.
EREF’s 2024 Analysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfill Tipping Fees provides comprehensive, data-driven insights into tipping fee trends across the U.S. waste industry. Based on data collected from 351 landfills, this report details average tipping fees by region, landfill size, and ownership type, offering a clear picture of how disposal costs are evolving in response to operational expenses, market forces, and broader economic trends.
This year’s report highlights a 10% national increase — the largest year-over-year rise since 2022 — and confirms the continued influence of factors such as landfill scale, ownership (public vs. private), and the presence of waste-to-energy infrastructure. In addition to MSW fees, the report covers tipping fees for Construction & Demolition (C&D) waste and emerging waste streams like solar panels and wind turbine blades.
