Special Garbage Collection

Due to the impact of recent storm events experienced on August 23 and 24, GFL Environmental Inc. will be collecting additional garbage during regular pick-up for those who have experienced flooding. Additional garbage, including large items such as carpet and furniture, will be collected on the following dates:

If you have Tuesday collection: August 29, 2023 and September 5, 2023
If you have Friday collection: September 1, 2023 and September 8, 2023

Please see the Collection Calendar for further details on regularly scheduled collection dates.

Please Note:

  • Heavy items such as carpet and flooring must be divided into manageable bundles and tied/taped. Please ensure there are no nails or screw in flooring that may be a safety hazard to Collectors.
  •  Do not place garbage out in containers that are oversized and overweight.
  • Containers cannot weigh over 20kg/45 lbs.
  • Do not use plastic shopping bags or recyclable cardboard boxes.
  • Items from property restoration companies will not be collected. It is the responsibility of the restoration company to dispose of these items.

Your patience is appreciated as GFL crews make their way to the many properties across the region that have been affected by these unprecedented events. If items are not collected on your upcoming collection date, please leave them at the curb for future collection.
