Holiday collection schedule |
|
Statutory holidays: Collection continues as usual on all statutory holidays except for Christmas Day and New Years Day. When these holidays fall on weekdays, collection will be delayed one day for that day and the rest of the week. We will advertise changes to the collection schedules on our website, through local media and social media, and on the My Waste app. Please note: Given the volume of waste (especially recyclables!) set out during the holidays, our collectors may be using different types of trucks and may collect your waste at different times during the day. Waste Management sites: The Cambridge and Waterloo Landfill sites will be closed to residents on satutory holidays.
Double garbage days: You can set out twice the regular amount of garbage bags/cans at your curb for collection (without the need for garbage tags) on your garbage day following these holidays:
Christmas Tree collection: If you have a natural holiday or Christmas tree, "tree-cycle" it! Set it out by 7 a.m. on your collection day from January 2 to January 12, 2018.
After our special Christmas Tree collection program has ended, you can still recycle your natural tree by dropping it off at one of our Regional facilities. Fees will apply. Trees dropped off will be chipped for mulch. Notes:
