Compost Give Away 
From May 7 to 12, 2012, Halton residents are invited to come to the Compost Give Away and pick up some compost created from the yard waste we collect each year. More information.

Use Blue Boxes Only
Recyclables in plastic bags will not be collected.  Plastic bags create additional, unnecessary waste (the bag is ripped open and the bag goes to landfill). More information.

Bulk Waste Collection
There is a 3 item limit per scheduled bulk collection day. Additional items will not be collected. Bulk waste is considered a large household item that is over 23 kg (50 lbs) or that will not fit into a closed garbage bag or container. More information.
