Curbside Waste

Pick-up limits

Additional bags in excess of these limits and uncollectible waste can be taken to any waste site during normal operating hours for disposal without incurring any additional charge or needing a bag tag.   
A bag or container used for waste disposal shall not exceed 45 pounds when full. 

Uncollectible Waste

The following items are considered ‘uncollectible waste’ and will not be collected curbside:

  • articles more than 1.5 metres long,
  • construction or manufacturing waste,
  • demolition debris,
  • yard waste,
  • iron or steel,
  • tires,
  • electronics,
  • appliances,
  • household hazardous waste (including paint),
  • or the carcass of any animal.

Any uncollectable waste will be left at the curb with a courtesy tag explaining why it was not picked up. 

Curbside Recycling

Recycling within Lanark Village is single stream – where all recyclables can be placed into one bin for collection.

Use the Blue Box Recycling Guide to help determine what is acceptable in the blue box.

For questions regarding curbside recycling and related to:

  • Replacement recycling containers

  • What you can recycle

Curbside RECYCLING

The contractor is not required to collect any materials in a blue box which are overly contaminated with food residue or where there is a health risk to the collector (e.g. broken glass, hazardous materials, and bee or wasp problems). The non-collectable material will be left in the blue box with a courtesy tag explaining why it was not picked up.
