Changes to the waste collection services in 2023
In an effort to modernize the Town of Hawkesbury’s waste management system and maximize the amount of waste we divert from landfills, there will be changes to the municipal waste collections services offered. These changes will take place in 2023 and are all fully detailed below.
The designated bins will be delivered directly to residences between May 29th and June 3rd. Bins will be delivered on the property in the same location where the bin would be set out on collection day. For a typical household, this would be at the end of the driveway, set back from the curb. If you have not received you garbage bin(s) by June 6th, please contact the Town at 613-632-0106 or email .
Thank you in advance for your cooperation in making our Town more sustainable!
