Reminder: Black Cart swap requests must be submitted by March 1
February 20, 2024 - 11:30am
The City’s initial cart swap intake is nearly over. Residents who would like to request a smaller black garbage cart are reminded that cart swap requests are open until Friday, March 1. If residents miss the deadline or need more time to decide, there will be another intake for swap requests starting in July.
Cart swaps will be completed April through June corresponding with collection schedules. More information regarding the cart swap process will be made available in the coming months once the first request window closes and the swap process and schedule are finalized.
Thanks for putting waste in the right place, Saskatoon! So far we have received over 12,000 requests for smaller carts.
To learn more about the Black Cart program or rates, visit saskatoon.ca/blackcart. To request a smaller cart, visit saskatoon.ca/utilityaccount and sign up or login to your Utility Account. Residents can also request a cart swap by calling a Corporate Revenue Customer Service Representative at 306-975-2400.
