Garbage containers to be distributed today & tomorrow
The City will continue container distribution today and tomorrow to help residents in need of a garbage container with a tight-fitting lid.
Distribution will be first-come, first-served on the following dates while supplies last:
- Wednesday, Nov. 8. – 4 p.m. - 8 p.m. – Multi Service Center hockey rink, 124 Grand St.
- Thursday, Nov. 9. – 4 p.m. - 8 p.m. – Multi Service Center hockey rink, 124 Grand St.
Registered agents must bring a copy of their management contract agreement.
Each property can take up to three containers per address.
Residents must bring proof of residency, which may include a utility bill, signed lease, or license.
As a reminder, residents who already have a container with a tight-fitting lid do not need to acquire a new container. The new regulation also has no effect on recycling or bulk/ furniture pick-up.
Property owners or the responsible agent of a property that has 10 or fewer units with space constraints can apply for a 1-year exemption to containerize garbage online at
