Organic Waste Pickup

Single-family dwellings, multi-dwelling buildings of less than
8 units, businesses in the residential sector, and institutions (schools, churches, etc.) benefit from an organic waste pickup.

Organic waste is made up of two large categories:

1. Food waste (fruits, vegetables, meats, soiled food cartons, etc.)*
2. Green waste (dead leaves, garden waste, etc.)

* We recommend these two methods to dispose of food waste:

Method 1
Line your small kitchen bin with used newspaper or a paper bag, and fill it with organic waste. Wrap the newspaper into a secure bundle or close the bag tightly, and transfer it to your brown bin.

Method 2
Line your brown bin with a larger paper bag. Place organic material directly into your small kitchen bin. Transfer the loose material into your lined brown bin. Close your brown bin bag tightly.

→ The use of newspapers or paper bags in the bins is not mandatory, but it is strongly recommended for sanitary reasons.

Important information:

• All organic waste must be deposited in the brown wheeled bin that is picked up every Monday, between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.
• The wheeled bins must be placed at the curb after 7 p.m. on the eve of the collection day.
• The wheels of the bin must be turned toward the building.
• The lid must be closed.
• The handle must be unlocked.
• The brown bin remains the property of the City and must be left behind if you move.
• NO PLASTIC BAGS (EVEN BIODEGRADABLE, COMPOSTABLE, OR CORN-BASED) ARE ACCEPTED.

Green waste may be deposited in the organic waste bin. It is possible to dispose of surplus green waste in other containers (e.g. an empty garbage can). We recommend, however, using biodegradable containers, such as paper bags and cardboard boxes, which will also be picked up. Green waste must not be deposited in bulk at the curb.
