Garbage, Recycling & Collection Services
Regular Waste & Recycling Collection
Some of our trucks have a hydraulic arm to facilitate waste collection. Please ensure to:
- place your bins in your driveway, on the side of the road before 6 a.m. on collection day;
- allow 2 feet of clearance between each bin;
- close the lid of the bin; and
- place the handles and wheels facing the building.
Collection Schedule
Have your bins curbside by 6 a.m.
Use 120L or 240L square wheeled bins for waste and recycling. Please ensure all garbage and recycling bins are placed curbside by 6:00 a.m. on collection day. Items set out late may not be collected.

Waste Collection
Curbside collection is carried out by a private contractor under a multi-year agreement with the Township.
Garbage is limited to 154 L per household per week, and an unlimited amount of recycling may be set at the curb. Items not contained in a bag or container will not be collected.
Garbage will be collected at residential properties if it's:
- One 120L square bin with wheels; or
- One 240L square bin with wheels filled to a maximum of 3/4 capacity; or
- 2 garbage bags.
Garbage left in cardboard boxes will not be collected. Please do not tie lids to the garbage can and remove any bungee cords to avoid pitcher injury.
Excess Garbage
Excess garbage beyond what fits in your bin with the lid closed, must be bagged, tagged and set out beside your Garbage Bin for collection.
Missed or Problem with Recycling
Residential recycling is not managed by the Township. It is administered by Circular Materials under the provincial Blue Box Regulation. If your recycling was missed or you are experiencing an issue with collection, please contact Miller Waste directly at area2@millerwaste.ca or 1-888-852-2374.
