VIWMA ADVISES OF TRASH SURVEY AT BOVONI LANDFILL

(St. Thomas, U.SV.I.) – The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority (VIWMA) advises the public and waste haulers that the Solid Waste Division will conduct a trash survey at the Bovoni Landfill from May 12–14, 2026, between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

As part of the survey process, selected haulers will be randomly directed to unload the contents of their vehicles at a designated area within the landfill. This will allow the survey team to assess and analyze the types of waste being collected and disposed of from various locations throughout the Territory.

VIWMA advises that the assessment process may result in temporary delays for selected haulers. The Authority appreciates the patience and cooperation of all haulers as this important initiative is conducted.

The survey will assist VIWMA in better understanding the composition of waste entering the landfill daily and support future planning efforts related to waste reduction, recycling initiatives, and landfill management.
