Starting November 2, 2009, Port Coquitlam residents who receive waste collection services from the City can put all leftover food scraps and food-soiled papers into their green waste carts. That means residents will be able to put meats, dairy, bones, soiled pizza boxes and other items into their green waste carts, in addition to yard waste and vegetable and fruit scraps.
The Kitchen Waste Collection Program is expected to help divert 2,400 tonnes of garbage each year from the landfill. It is open to all households eligible to receive green waste collection from the City.Click on image below to download a PDF of a handy waste-sorting chart and tips for your green waste cart
