On your collection day

• Put your cart(s) and recycling out for collection by 7:30 a.m.
• Make sure the cart lid is completely closed. Overfilled carts will not be collected.
• Leave one meter clearance on all sides around your cart, and clear above the cart.
• Make sure your cart(s) weigh less than 200 lbs. Overweight carts will not be collected.

Waste collection is on fixed days. If your collection day is Monday, it will always be on Monday, even on statutory holidays.

The only time this will change is when your collection day lands on Christmas Day or New Year's Day.
