Garbage & Recycling
Set out by 7:00 a.m. on your collection day. Carts must be returned by end of day.
What's changing in October 2026
Responsibility for residential recycling is moving to Circular Materials under Alberta's extended producer responsibility regulation. Your collection day and cart stay the same — watch for a mail-out with the details.
Collection basics
- Set out carts by 7:00 a.m. on collection day — crews start early
- Space carts 1 m apart, wheels against the curb, clear of vehicles and poles
- Bagged garbage only inside the black cart; recycling loose in the blue cart
- Return carts by end of collection day
