Tips on Searching

In order to do a search you should enter something in at least one of the following fields: Name, County, Old ID Number, New ID Number, CSL Number or Municipality

The searches are case insensitive. It doesn't matter if you type Main Street, main street, MAIN STREET or MaiN STreet; the case is ignored and the results of your search will be the same.

If you know that a Landfill Name, County, Old ID Number, New ID Number, CSL Number begins with a certain sequence of letters (or numbers) then you can search the company database by entering those letters and clicking Begins With. But, if, for example, you know that a company is located on Main Street, but you don't know the street number then you can type Main or Main St and click on Contains the letters for the street field. A "Contains the letters" search will find the sequence of letters or numbers no matter where it is located.

You can display 10, 25, 100 or 600 records at time. If you specify 10 records to display and the search comes up with 11 records only the first 10 will be shown. You would have to run the query again and set the number of records to be displayed to 25 for the 11 records to be displayed in this example. .

If you don’t find what you’re looking for the first time, change a thing or two and try it again!
