Want a smaller garbage cart?
Starting today, Simcoe County residents can submit online requests to exchange their existing garbage and recycling carts for smaller sizes.
Exchanges will be free of charge until July 30, 2022 and exchange deliveries will commence in early March.
“Our residents deserve a great deal of credit for adapting so well to the new automated cart collection system,” said Warden George Cornell. “Myself, and many of our Councillors, have heard firsthand how so many residents have enjoyed the benefits and conveniences of this new program. While we had some learnings the first few weeks due to the scale of this significant change, we’ve quickly seen the improvements in alleviating labour challenges and ultimately reducing collection misses for our residents. For households that would prefer smaller carts, the County is now pleased to offer a simple and easy way for residents to swap their existing carts for different sizes.”
Cart sizes available for selection are:
Recycling – 360 L (default size), 240 L, 120 L
Garbage – 240 L (default size), 120 L
Organics – 120 L only
