Waste & Recycling

Garbage Collection:  Utility billings and garbage tags are mailed to property owners at the start of the year.  Residential garbage collection takes place on Tuesdays, beginning at 8:00 a.m.   Residents are reminded that bags are not to be placed curbside before 6:00 a.m. on collection day.  All bags must be tagged for pickup – additional tags can be purchased from the Village Office for $3.50 each.

Recycling Facilities:  Recycling bins are located at the intersection of Kootenay Street and Slocan Avenue.  Please direct inquiries about recycling to the Regional District of Central Kootenay at 1-800-268-7325.
