On February 26, 2024, Valleyview Town Council passed Waste Management Bylaw #2024-06.
Residential customers should take note of the following key points of the Waste Management Bylaw:
- Waste shall be placed for collection no later than 7:00 a.m. on the scheduled collection day and waste receptacle must be returned to its storage location on the premises, within one (1) meter of the dwelling by 11:59 p.m. of the scheduled collection day after being emptied;
- Waste shall be deposited only in the assigned waste receptacle (garbage bin);
- Break apart any waste that exceeds the dimensions of the garbage bag;
- Ensure the lid of each cart is completely closed when placed for collection;
- Garbage carts must not be filled higher than the cart rim or interfere with the cart’s lid;
- Waste placed into garbage carts must not be packed tightly in the cart and must fall freely from the container during collection;
- No person shall secure a waste receptacle closed in a manner that would impede collection.
- No person shall store any waste receptacle(s) on any public land, boulevard, road, or sidewalk.
Non-compliance with the Waste Management Bylaw may result in fines or penalties as per Schedule “D” of Bylaw 2024-06.
