Bi-weekly Garbage Collection in Effect

Starting May 1, garbage collection in Okotoks moved to a bi-weekly pick up schedule. To accommodate this change, households received new 240 L garbage carts. These carts are double the size of our previous standard cart, allowing all residents the same volume of garbage. With this change, residents will see a reduction in their bi-monthly utility bill.

Recycling and organics collection will continue on a weekly basis. *With the exception of organics carts during winter months.
