Carts
Cart Placement
- Place your cart – with the back wheels towards the fence or property, close lid. On collection day, the carts should be placed on a flat surface 3 feet from the roadway.
- Point your cart – the cart lid opens towards the centre of the road or lane. This is because operators hook the front of the cart onto the truck to help them lift and tip it
- Space your cart – leave an arm’s length clearance (one meter or 39 inches) on all sides of each cart (or separate sides of your driveway). This is to allow the collection truck enough room to grab your cart.
- Look up – avoid placing your cart under hydro or telephone wires, basketball hoops, awnings and tree limbs.
- Your garbage and/or recycling carts should be out by 7:00 am on your designated pickup day.
- Carts should be removed from the road within 24 hours of collection and stored on the homeowner’s property. Carts must be stored in a way that they do not interfere with ordinary travel of vehicles or pedestrians.
Winter Cart Placement Tips
- In winter, carts should be placed on the end of your driveway beyond the reach of the snow plow.
- Clear snow from the area around and under where you place the cart and clear snow and ice off lids so they will open easily when emptied.
Provided Carts
The RM will provide one 240 litre (64 gallon) grey waste cart and one 360 l (95 gal.) blue recycling cart to each occupied home. The cost of the carts is included in the yearly charge (value $105 per cart).
Replacement Carts
If carts have a manufacturer’s defect, they are covered under warranty. If the carts have been placed correctly at the road and the contractor or the RM damage the carts, either the contractor or the RM will be responsible for the replacement. Otherwise, the resident is responsible for lost or stolen carts.
