In Kelowna, residential fences can be up to 2.0 metres (approx. 6.5 ft) in backyards and 1.22 metres (4 ft) in front yards. If you stay within these limits, a building permit is typically not required.
As of 2026, the Glenmore Landfill charges $30 per tonne for wood waste. For a standard 150-foot wood fence, disposal fees usually range from $150 to $300 depending on the weight and volume.
If the fence is built exactly on the property line, it is common practice in Kelowna to split the cost 50/50. However, if a neighbor refuses, you may have to pay the full amount and build it entirely on your side of the line.
Chain link remains the most affordable at $20–$30 per linear foot installed. For privacy, pressure-treated wood is the next best value at $40–$50 per linear foot.
