Effective January 1st, 2020, the garbage limit has changed to a maximum of three (3) regular sized (approximately 26" x 33") garbage bags of household waste per week. Please note that contractor sized bags are not accepted.


NEW Garbage & Recycling Carts - 2023

When placing your garbage and recycling carts out for collection, please ensure to do the following;
- Place the carts with the wheels and handles facing your residence. This is to ensure the lids open properly while being emptied.
- Place the carts on the edge of your driveway, not on the street.
- Try to place one cart on each side of your driveway to allow proper spacing for the Contractor(s). If this is not possible, then please place the carts approximately 1 meter apart.
We thank you for your cooperation!
