LANDFILLS, RECYCLING & Spring Clean Up
Information about our landfills including locations, hours of operation, tipping fees and waste diversion can be found on our Landfills page.
We have been working with the Resource Productivity and Recovery Authority and Circular Materials organizations to set up more recycling opportunities for Greenstone residents and will provide announcements on the introduction of residential curbside recycling via our News Feed and social media posts. To read more about Ontario's recycling plan visit the websites for the Resource Productivity and Recovery Authority and Circular Materials.
Right now, we are in the consultation stages for one of our largest projects, the development of a new waste management system that will guide landfill and waste diversion in Greenstone for many years to come. We encourage your participation in the consultation process! Updates for upcoming events are provided on the Greenstone Waste Management Environmental Assessment page.
More information about projects and planning can be found on our Plans, Reports and Studies page.
Information about Spring Clean Up program activities can be found on our Spring Clean Up page.
