Can curbside yard debris collection benefits offset the cost?
We think so, based on the many customers who are using the service and the materials they’re setting out. Vancouver residents who choose to subscribe to curbside yard debris service are able to set out 96 gallons of sorted yard debris materials every other week and are provided with a large capacity cart; this is a much higher level of service than is provided in many communities. Residents who generate a significant amount of yard debris, even seasonally, should be aware that yard debris service offers them about one and a half times the capacity to manage this material at about half the cost of setting out extra garbage cans. As a side benefit to your saving money by recycling yard debris, the community achieves a much higher overall recycling and diversion level through your efforts to separate. Waste Connections is happy to talk with you about the advantages of this service.
