BRANCH PICKUP

Branch Pickup Announcement
Branch pickup service will commence on Wednesday, April 9th, weather permitting, and will continue every other Wednesday thereafter. To facilitate collection, branches should be placed in manageable-sized piles for a single maintenance worker to handle easily. Multiple small piles, within reason, are acceptable.
Please note the following guidelines:

Alternative Disposal Option
For property owners with large piles of branches that cannot be removed independently, the town offers the use of its utility trailer. The trailer will be parked in an accessible location for loading, after which staff will dispose of the contents at the Transfer Station.

Additional Information
The town does not pick up grass clippings, yard or garden refuse, whether bagged or unbagged. These materials should not be left in back lanes. Compost piles must remain within property boundaries or be properly disposed of at the Transfer Station. Bags used for transport must be emptied and removed from the station.

TRANSFER STATION SEASON OPENING

1:00pm
4:30pm

The station operates every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. until the season concludes at the end of October.
A transfer station is a facility designed for the temporary storage of solid waste before it is transported to a site for treatment, recycling, recovery, or disposal. These stations can accommodate clean, non-painted, and non-treated wood for storage and burning purposes.
For waste disposal beyond the municipality, the nearest landfill is located in Swift Current.
