Recycling Shed Policies & Etiquette

To help keep our community clean and our recycling program running smoothly, please follow these shed policies and etiquette rules:

  • Bag your recycling: Ensure all items are securely bagged to prevent littering and ease the collection process.

  • Break down cardboard: All boxes must be flattened or folded down to maximize space inside the shed.

  • Capacity limits: Do not overstuff the shed. If it is full, please store your recycling at home until it has been emptied. Do not leave recycling outside of the shed.

  • Shed Collection Schedule: Sheds are emptied on the first and third week of the month from April to October, and once a week from May to September.

  • No Household Garbage: Recycling sheds are strictly for accepted recyclables only. No kitchen waste or general trash is permitted.

  • Battery Disposal: Household batteries can now be left in the recycling sheds by placing them in the marked plastic battery pails.

  • Residential Use Only: These sheds are not for commercial or industrial disposal.

  • No Trailer Loads: Please do not leave trailer loads of recycling at the sheds. If you have large volumes, please take them to the Waste Management Facility at 62125 PTH 11 South (Approx. 1 KM south of the Hwy 11 & 44 split).

  • Rinse Containers: Please rinse all food and beverage containers to prevent odours and discourage pests.
