Green Waste Collection Is Beginning

Another sure sign of spring has arrived: Green waste collection is beginning April 3rd.

Waste must be placed in paper yard waste bags, bushel baskets or a garbage bin labeled with the City “Green Waste” stickers. These stickers are available at City Hall, Peterborough GreenUP and local Home Hardware stores free of charge. Note that plastic bags will not be accepted.

Securely tie brush in bundles up to 1 m or 3 feet in length and 30 cm or 12 inches in diameter, weighing no more than 22 kg or 50 lbs.
