Missed Collections

There are a number of reasons that your trash, recycling and/or composting might have been missed.

Holiday Weeks: During holiday weeks, the collection schedule is delayed by one day following the holiday. Find more details in the Holidays section below.
Blocked or Improper Set Out Sometimes trash/recycling/composting can’t be collected because containers are blocked or containers were set out incorrectly. Check the service guidelines to make sure your containers were set out correctly.
Every Other Week Schedule: Recycling (blue lid), Composting (green lid) and Every Other Week (EOW) Trash (yellow lid) are only collected once every two weeks. Be sure to follow the collection schedule and set up reminders to help.
Severe Weather: On rare occasions, extreme weather such as snow, ice or wind can impact collection. Sign up for service alerts through the online calendar to be notified in these situations.

If your trash / recycling / composting was not picked up (and not for one of the above reasons), please contact Waste Services.
