Be recycle ready

  • Set out your recycling in a bin or box. It shouldn’t weigh more than 50 pounds or 22 kilograms.

  • If it snows overnight, be sure to pull your waste out of the snow before 7 a.m.
    • If more than 5 centimetres of snow is expected, please wait until morning to shovel out a spot and set out your recycling.
    • Place bins and bags in your shovelled-out driveway
    • Recycling should never be placed on the sidewalk, as it creates a hazard for pedestrians and snow plow operators.
