If you have been doing some yard clean up and maintenance, you will be happy to know the County of Simcoe will have its curbside leaf and yard waste collection program back for the month of July.
The bi-weekly collections include leaves, grass, branches (sized and bundled appropriately) and other appropriately-prepared garden waste.
Residents are reminded to use kraft paper yard waste bags, compostable bags, cardboard boxes or open-ended rigid containers when placing leaf and yard waste at their regular collection point.
Materials for collection should be placed curbside by 7:00 a.m. on Monday of the collection week for each area.
Collection will occur during the week and not necessarily on resident’s regular pickup day.
To determine your collection zone and collection weeks, please refer to the Simcoe County Collects App, which is free to download from the App Store or Google Play.
The schedule is also available in the 2022 Waste Management Calendar which was mailed to households earlier this winter.
Lear and yard waste will be collected throughout the week in each zone as follows:
Zone one
July 4, 2022
July 18, 2022
Zone Two
July 11, 2022
July 25, 2022
