WHAT IS IT?
Garbage is non-recyclable waste that cannot be disposed using the recycling services or collections provided by the City. You can put your garbage in a sealed plastic bag inside the garbage bin. For example, garbage includes: scrap and non-recyclable materials, meat carcasses, fatty cuts of meat, waste of animal, disposable diapers, soiled non-recyclable packaging including toys where batteries have been removed.
COLLECTION
Garbage is picked up Thursdays (except statutory holidays) from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The bin should be put out by the curb after 5:00 p.m. the night before or before 7:00 a.m. the day of the collection. Make sure to take the bin back from the curb the same day before 11:00 p.m.
Overlooked bin?
Make sure collection instructions were followed: day and time, bin position, accepted container, container weight, accepted materials, etc.
If all instructions were followed, report the situation to Public Works the same evening after 7 p.m. or before 10:30 a.m. the next day.
Requests received after 10:30 a.m. the day following the collection will not be processed.

Tips on How to Avoid Rodent Damage to Wheeled Bins
- Put your bins out for collection Thursday morning before 7 a.m., not the night before
- Always put material in sealed bags in the garbage bin
- Keep the bins clean and use a disinfectant as required
- Where possible, keep your bins in a shed or garage
- If shelter is not available, place bins away from trees and shrubs that provide animals with easy access
YOUR GREY BIN ISN’T RIGHT FOR YOUR NEEDS?
If your garbage bin is too large or too small for your household’s needs, you have the right to change to a different size, one time only, at the end of the year.
Important guidelines:
- Your existing bin must be clean and empty of all waste
- Leave the bin on the outside of your property where it is visible from the street (e.g. in front of the garage)
- Write your address on your new bin as soon as you receive it!
