Hot summer recycling tips

Now accepting pet waste

Starting April 1, residents can put pet waste in their residential organics carts.

Acceptable pet waste includes pet feces, cat litter and bedding for pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs etc. Pet waste will be accepted either loose or within a certified compostable or paper bag.

Pet waste will not be accepted in organics receptacles in city parks.
