Garbage & Recyling pick up 

EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 1, 2020
ALL GARBAGE PICK-UP IN GLENBORO WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:

TUESDAYS
RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL GARBAGE PICK-UP

WEDNESDAYS
RECYCLING PICK-UP

FRIDAYS

  • The last day for Friday residential garbage and yard waste pick-up will be November 4, 2022. Normal service will continue on Tuesdays. 
  • There is no change to the recycling pick-up schedule on Wednesdays.

All yard waste must be bagged as this helps to control dust and mold that causes health concerns. It will not be picked up if placed loosely in containers.

Due to extensive provincial regulations, composting is not available at the Waste Transfer Station. All yard waste picked up will be placed in the household garbage bins at the Waste Transfer Station which in turn adds to transfer costs. As a result, residents and ratepayers are strongly encouraged to compost grass clippings etc. … to help keep costs to a minimum. 

Residents and ratepayers may continue to haul DRY leaves, sticks etc. to the Transfer Station and place them in the pit.
