Curbside collection is the City of Lloydminster's program for collecting organics, recycling and garbage.
Residents receive one green bin to dispose of organic materials and one grey bin to dispose of garbage. Residents are responsible for purchasing blue bags to recycle other materials including cardboard and plastic.
Curbside collection occurs by zones and it happens in your neighbourhood on the same day all year, including holidays. The only exception is Christmas Day and New Year's Day when collection takes place one day earlier. Not sure what zone you're in? Review the curbside collection zoning map.
Contest Alert: Are you curbside compliant?
Waste Services is challenging the community to be 100% compliant in waste, recycling and organics disposal as the warmer weather approaches and people begin spring cleaning.
Residents who remain curbside compliant from Monday, March 29 through April 30, 2021, will be entered into a random draw for three prizes (provided by GFL Environmental Inc.) valued at approximately $1,000 each.
Children are invited to participate in weekly activities for a chance to win additional prizes and to help them learn about proper waste disposal and recycling.
