When are carts collected?
As Green Cart service is rolled out across Calgary in mid-2017 your collection schedule will be changing:
- Green carts will be picked up every week on the same day as your blue cart. Since the majority of household waste is compostable and may smell, this material will be picked up once a week.
- Blue carts will be picked up every week on the same day as your green cart.
- Black carts will be picked up once every two weeks since more than half of our garbage is compostable material that can go in the green cart. Black carts will be picked up on a different day than green and blue carts so you never have to set out three carts on the same day.
