Did you know?

Your collectors continue to pick up trash on most statutory holidays that occur on regular collection days throughout the year. Christmas Day and New Year's Day are the only days each year that service isn't provided, enabling your collectors to be at home with their own loved ones on those days. As a result, a temporary holiday schedule is implemented, ensuring that you continue to receive reliable weekly garbage bin and recycling bin collection.​​​​​​​
