Our mission: To advance comprehensive and integrated municipal solid waste management in BC.  More than 3,000 solid waste professionals across North America have become SWANA certified in one or more of the 7 disciplines:
  • Collection
  • Composting
  • Construction and Demolition (C&D)
  • Recycling
  • Landfill Management
  • Municipal Solid Waste Management

The BC chapter of SWANA currently has more than 190 members from both the public and private sectors.  Members range from landfill operators to site superintendents and landfill managers, from presidents and CEOs of facilities to city engineers, from consultants to managers of infrastructure and engineering departments.  The BC chapter has 20 members on its Board of Directors, with 13 Directors from the public sector and 6 from the private sector.  The current focus of the BC chapter is on delivering at least 3 technical sessions each year to members, annually delivering one SWANA Landfill Certification Course in BC and implementing a SWANA BC Chapter Landfill Operators course.
