    Missed Garbage and Recycling Collection – Wednesday, December 31, 2025

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to notify residents that garbage and recycling collection has been suspended for the day. This is for the safety of operators due to weather and road conditions. Please remove garbage and recycling from the roadside.

    For all properties where collection was missed, crews will accept double the regular limit on their next scheduled collection day of January 7, 2026. Residents must have their waste to the curb by 7:00 a.m.

    Alternatively, residents may take garbage and recycling to the Landfill and Recycling Depot and inform staff that your regular collection was missed.

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!
