Waste & Recycling


Urban Centre Waste & Recycling Collection

Residential garbage and recycling collection services are provided to residents in the following urban centers:

Blumenort - Tuesday
Kleefeld - Tuesday
New Bothwell - Tuesday
Roseville Drive area - Tuesday
Mitchell - Wednesday
Grunthal - Friday
Shady Lane/Green Acres Lane area - Friday

We ask that residents have their bins out by the curb before 7AM (or night before) and leave out until 7PM as the exact pick up time may vary. 

Collection services are provided by private contractors on a fee for service basis, included on annual tax bills. Service fees may be adjusted annually depending on volume for each community.

Waste & Recycling collection is for residential properties only and will not be extended to businesses located within the collection areas. To arrange for pick up services, contact the contractors listed on the right.
