Leaf and Yard Waste Curbside Collection dates for spring 2016 have been pushed forward due to continuing cold weather and recent snowfalls.
Leaf and yard waste collection will now take place between Tuesday, May 17 and Friday, May 27, on the regular recycling day indicated in residents’ 2016 Garbage & Recycling Collection Schedules.
Homeowners are reminded that residential leaf and yard waste must be stored in Kraft paper bags only for curbside pickup. Plastic bags are not accepted. Kraft bags are available at most hardware and grocery stores.
Leaf and yard waste materials are taken to the City of Thunder Bay Solid Waste & Recycling Facility and made into soil-enriching compost.
