Key Rules to Remember

A lcswma worker in a yellow safety vest and helmet stands facing a white dump truck on a worksite, where Residential Disposal Rates influence the project's efficiency, with trees and power lines seen in the background.

Tarp All Loads

Open loads must be tarped & large items must be secured before arrival to prevent litter, ensure safety, and comply with PA DEP regulations.

Know Your Waste

Know the origin of the waste and the profile/generator code (P-Code, G-Code, or H-Code) to prevent delays and reduce on-site time.

A worker wearing a yellow hard hat and reflective vest talks into a walkie-talkie in a large lcswma facility, surrounded by piles of debris and construction waste, likely monitoring Residential Disposal Rates during site operations.

Wear The Right Gear

All visitors, including passengers, must wear close-toed, sturdy shoes and a high-visibility vest or garment while at the tipping area. Customers can purchase a high-visibility vest at the scalehouse for a fee.
