The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Yard waste goes in the green cart on a weekly collection from March to November, with free extra collections that are booked by phone.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The weekly green cart collection is included in the township service during the yard waste programme, and the extra yard waste collections are free to all areas within the nine container limit. An additional green cart is a one time charge ordered through the receptionist.
When & how
Put the green cart out the night before the weekly collection day, and book a free extra collection by phone: by noon on the Friday before a Monday collection for areas B, C and D, or by noon on the Thursday before a Friday collection for area A.
Get it ready
Keep everything inside the closed cart with nothing protruding, set the cart at least one foot from the others and three feet from obstructions, and keep dirt, sod, rocks, stumps, stump grindings, bamboo, logs, root balls, wood chips and branches over six inches in diameter out because those need a private contractor.
Carts go to the curb the night before the collection day, at least one foot apart and three feet from obstructions such as poles, mailboxes and cars. Nothing goes out more than one day in advance, carts come back in the same day as collection, and everything has to be inside the cart with the lid closed, because an overloaded cart or one with protruding contents is a violation and the collection is skipped.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
