Bi-weekly garbage collection begins Oct. 30, 2023

Residents are reminded that garbage collection winter hours take effect October 30. That means that depending on your route, garbage will be collected every two weeks with a two bag limit (75L bags) if you have green bin services, and a four bag limit (two bags per week) if you don’t have green bin collection. Garbage bags must not exceed 25 kg / 55 lbs.

Residents with curbside collection can set out one extra garbage bag on your regular collection day the week of Family Day, Easter Monday, Victoria Day, Canada Day, the Civic holiday, Labour Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas day.

    I moved into my house in 2002, garbage was collected once a week. Two years later collection became twice a week with an increase in price. Then two or three years later it went back to collecting once a week with no decrease in price. Now you want to go twice a month? Does that mean a price increase also?

    Does the monthly cost drop by ½ as well?
