Curbside garbage and recycling pick-up are provided for all residential properties in Redwater. Garbage pick-up is scheduled every Friday and recycling pick-up is every second Friday.
Please see the 2023 GFL Calendar for pickup dates.
Garbage bins and recycling items should be placed at the curb no later than 7:00 am on the pick-up date. Once pick-up has been completed, all bins must be removed from the roadway as soon as possible or no later than 9:00 pm on the collection day.
If your bin was missed by the collection provider, please contact the Town Office immediately at 780-942-3519.
Organic waste pick-up occurs on Fridays as well, and winter organics will be picked up monthly on the first scheduled Organics pick-up day. Please take a look at the poster below for organic pick up do's and don'ts.
Some suggestions for Winter organics pickup:
- In winter, organics will freeze in the bins. Place newspaper or cardboard in the bottom of the bin to ensure your bin will empty.
- Loosen any frozen material before placing the bin.
- Bag your compost in biodegradable/compostable bags. Not plastic.
Schedules can be found on our website calendar and are indicated in the Community Calendar published monthly in the Redwater Review.
