The Solid Waste Tax is paid by municipalities and facilities certified by the Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) for waste delivered for disposal or incineration, and by haulers permitted by ANR to haul waste to out-of-state facilities. The tax is computed monthly, based on the number of tons of waste delivered for disposal or incineration by municipalities or certified facilities, or waste hauled by permitted haulers to out-of-state facilities.
How to File and Pay
The Commissioner of Taxes has required that all businesses filing Form SWT-608 must file their returns and pay any tax due electronically beginning April 1, 2025. The method for filing and paying any tax due is handled through myVTax, the Department's free, secure, online filing site. For questions, please contact the Vermont Department of Taxes at (802) 828-2551 or tax.business@vermont.gov.
The Director of Taxpayer Services will consider a written request for a waiver from the e-file requirement based on extraordinary circumstances.
