Why is garbage collection being changed to one container collected once every two weeks?
Studies have shown that up to 50% of what is now being collected as garbage can be recycled through your green bin curbside collection program. Remaining garbage is mainly dry materials without odour problems and can be stored for two weeks. If you have extra containers of garbage, you may as usual, buy $2 garbage tags and attach one to each additional standard-size container. A maximum of two additional standard-size containers will be collected.
