Households can put several smaller bags in containers up to 140 litres. Households will be allowed to place a maximum of three items for curbside garbage collection on collection day. The three-item limit would not apply to people living in properties with more than six residential units or unavoidable farm waste from agricultural properties. The City will share more information with residents before implementation of this new limit.Īround 85 per cent of households already set out three garbage items or fewer on garbage day. The new limit will encourage the remaining 15 per cent to use their blue, black and green bins.
