Curbside collection schedule changes begin January 2
December 28, 2023 - 8:00am
New curbside collections routes will be in effect beginning next week. Households with curbside collections have green, blue and black roll-out carts that are collected bi-weekly from the front street or back lane.
Significant changes to collection routes have been made aiming to reduce fuel consumption and create efficiencies to keep costs lower and cut greenhouse gas emissions. Residents can check the collection calendar to make sure they know their new pick-up dates.
Due to these changes, some neighbourhoods will experience longer periods between collections for certain carts at the beginning of January. The City would like to thank residents in advance for their patience as it makes these necessary improvements.
To see your new collection schedule or to set collection reminders, visit saskatoon.ca/collectioncalendar or download the Saskatoon Waste Wizard app.
