Evelyn Township Landfill in Timmins remains closed due to excessive snow; reassessment set for May 4

The Evelyn Township Landfill in Timmins will remain closed because excessive snow accumulation has made access to the site unsafe and impractical, according to the city. Timmins officials said the site will be reassessed on Monday, May 4, 2026.

The closure affects residents who use the landfill for waste disposal, with no reopening date announced beyond the planned May 4 reassessment.

The City of Timmins’ Environmental Services Department said the landfill will stay closed until conditions improve enough to allow safe access.

City staff are continuing to monitor conditions. The city said it will provide updates when access allows the landfill to reopen safely.
