Spring Garden Waste Collection

The Municipality provides an annual curbside garden refuse pickup service. This is an opportunity to dispose of garden refuse, such as tree prunings, which are not easily transported to the Public Works Yard.

All garden refuse, to a maximum volume of 3 cubic metres per property in total, must be placed on the boulevard by 8:00 am on the annual collection day designated on your Curbside Garbage/Recycle Schedule.

Helpful Tips

  • Material must not exceed 5’ in length and 3” in diameter.
  • Material may be placed in a loose pile, but not in plastic bags.
  • Stumps, wood, rocks or soil will not be collected.
  • Material may be placed on the boulevard a maximum 10 days prior to scheduled pickup.
