curbside collection 

Garbage, Blue Boxes and Green Bins are collected curbside every week. 

All waste should be at the curb by 

7 a.m. 

on your scheduled collection day, 

and no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before. 

Yard waste, batteries, bulky items and white goods are also collected curbside 

throughout the County, during designated weeks. Review the following pages for 

details on each curbside program. 

Routes can change 

Keep in mind that sometimes collection routes are altered to accommodate winter 

weather, snow removal and construction, among other things. To ensure your waste is 

collected, have it out by 7 a.m. on your collection day. For timely updates about route 

alterations or cancellations, call GFL at 1.888.941.3345 ext. 1. 

Bins and boxes 

Blue Boxes, Green Bins and kitchen 

collectors are available at local municipal 

offices, the Orangeville Operations Centre, 

and the County office at 55 Zina Street, 

Orangeville. 

If your container is broken, bring it in! We’ll 

have it recycled and give you a new one. 

Extra containers are also available for a fee.

some special materials 

Download your 

collection schedule 

and never miss a 

holiday interruption! 

DufferinWaste 

Broken glass and other sharp items should be placed in a rigid container 

(no larger than 0.6 m/2 ft. in any dimension), sealed closed and clearly labeled “Sharp 

Object”. Please place this container beside or on top of your garbage bag/container. 

Medical sharps/needles and medications are not permitted in any 

curbside collection program. Check the Take it Back Directory (p. 25/26) or bring them to a 

Hazardous & Electronic Waste Event (p. 16). 

Fireplace ashes should be left to cool for at least 10 days before placing them at the 

curb. Contact GFL at 1.888.941.3345 ext. 1 or dufferin@gflenv.com before placing ashes at 

the curb. Another option is to spread ashes in gardens for fertilizer. 

It is important that containers are visible and neatly set out at the curb. Keep bags/containers 

for each stream (e.g. garbage, Blue Boxes & Green Bin) separated at the curb. 

Snowbanks 

In the winter, maintain an area to safely place waste bags/containers at the road. Bags and 

containers placed on snowbanks cannot be collected for health and safety reasons. 

Co-collection 

The trucks that collect Blue Boxes and Green Bins have a “split body”. It may look like the 

compostable material is going in the same place as recyclables, however, the trucks being 

used to collect the materials have two separate compartments. You cannot see the two 

compartments unless you’re standing at the back of the truck. 

This side holds 

Blue Box contents! 

Rural Areas 

The use of a waste enclosure to store garbage, Blue Boxes 

and Green Bins is permitted in rural areas, as approved by 

Dufferin Waste. The enclosure must have a flag, similar to 

a mailbox, in order to notify collection staff that there are 

materials to be picked up. The flag should be at least 5 x 10 

cm (2 x 4 in) and painted red. Collection staff will not 

stop if they do not see a raised red flag. 

This side holds 

Green Bin contents! 

There are some rural roads that the collection vehicles only travel in one direction. On these 

roads, waste must be put on a particular side of the road to be collected. If waste is placed 

on the wrong side of the road, opposite the “line of travel”, residents are notified by the 

driver with an “Oops” sticker. If you have any questions regarding the line of travel, please call 

Dufferin Waste at 519.941.2816 ext. 2620.

Some pointers... 

There is no limit on the amount 

of recyclables collected. But, each 

container/bag/bundle of recyclables 

must not exceed 20 kg (44 lbs). 

Ensure containers are empty. 

A quick rinse is usually enough to 

remove contamination (i.e. food 

wastes, liquids). 

Papers and containers can be 

mixed together. 

Dufferin’s recyclables are sent to 

a “single stream” sorting facility 

where they can sort through paper 

and containers. 

Place recyclables loose in 

your Blue Box. 

Each household is entitled to 

two free blue boxes. If you need 

more room, you can purchase 

another Blue Box or place items in 

a blue-tinted transparent bag for 

occasional overflow. 

On windy days, stack your 

Blue Boxes. 

Place heavier items, such as phone 

books, glass jars and magazines 

on top. 

Do not place any waste

icy surfaces.

Some pointers... 

Line the bin. 

Lining the Green Bin and/or kitchen 

collector is a great way to keep it 

clean and prevent odours. There 

are a few options for lining the bin, 

shown at right. 

Wrap meat in newspaper. 

Maggots sometimes appear when 

flies can lay eggs on meat. 

Freeze it. 

Keeping your meat or fish scraps in 

the freezer until collection day can 

help reduce odours. 

It’s not just for the kitchen. 

Placing a small container in your 

bathroom can help collect tissues 

and other compostable items. 

Keep it clean. 

Rinse the kitchen collector and 

Green Bin with lemon juice, vinegar, 

or add a sprinkling of baking soda 

to remove odours. 

Shredded paper belongs in 

the Green Bin. 

Shredded paper is challenging to 

sort in the Blue Box program. It is 

more effective and efficient to place 

it in the Green Bin for composting. 

For overflow, place shredded paper 

in a certified compostable bag and 

place beside your Green Bin.

options to line the bin 

No liner at all. Placing compostable materials loose in the Green Bin is 

acceptable. Keep in mind that food may freeze to the bottom and the container 

will need to be rinsed out more often. 

Newspaper or paper bags. Wrapping compostable materials in 

newspaper or paper bags will absorb moisture, reduce odours and pests, and 

prevent materials from freezing to the bottom of the Green Bin in the winter. 

Certified compostable bags. Using certified compostable bags in the 

Green Bin or kitchen collector will minimize odours, insects and leakage. These 

liners are 100% compostable and come in sizes to fit both containers. The bags 

must have either logo (shown at right) to be accepted. 

Plastic bags (clear green plastic bags, shopping bags, garbage bags, etc.) are not 

permitted and will not be collected. However, another option is to duct tape a 

plastic bag into the Green Bin, so that it does not come out of the bin when the 

contents are collected. 

You’re using the 

Green Bin, why 

not use some of 

the end result?
