Collection Information
 
How often is garbage collected?

• Garbage will be collected every week from May to September and every second week for the rest of the year.

• Recycling will be collected every second week all year round.

• Consult the calendar Collection Days to confirm your collection day.

When and where to put your garbage

• Place your bins at the curb before 8:00 a.m. on your collection day.

• The bins have to be placed two feet from the street, wheels facing the house and not the street.

• During the winter season, we asked residents to make sure the bins are not placed too close or on the street

• The bins have to be placed two feet from the street, wheels facing the house, not the street.

 
How many bins I am allowed to have?

• The municipality provided each household with one green bin for garbage and one blue bin for recycling.

• Each household has the option of buying only one extra green bin for 100$.

 
What do I do with the bin if I move?
The serial number on the bins are registered with the place of residence and not the resident. So, if you move, the bins must be left at the place of residence.
