Extra Waste Pickup Over The Holidays
The City of Port Coquitlam will provide extra waste pickup this holiday season to residents who have sorted their waste correctly but still have full carts. The City is offering the additional waste pickup service between Christmas and January 7 to assist residents who have longer waits between collections due to statutory holidays. Residents who would like to take advantage of this free service must sort their waste correctly:
- Place all food scraps, food-soiled papers and yard trimmings in their green carts.
- Place clean paper (including wrapping paper), plastic and tins in their blue carts.
Information about how to properly sort waste is available:
- www.portcoquitlam.ca/wasteloss
- in the City’s 2012 Community Calendar, distributed to households on Dec. 7 or
- available at City facilities, and
- in printed format at City Hall.
