Changes at Waste Facilities - April 4, 2022 |
The no-charge weekly garbage bag limit will be reduced from 3 bags per week to 2 bags per week starting Monday, April 4. As part of the District of Muskoka’s Waste Strategy, a reduction in no-charge weekly garbage bag limits at Waste Facilities starts the week of April 4, 2022. The changes were approved by District Council in December 2021 as part of the Waste Strategy and Roadmap to 60% Diversion. Reducing garbage is critical to extend the life of Muskoka’s one remaining landfill and ensure a secure, long-term way to manage our garbage. |

All waste facilities are closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day, Good Friday and Easter Sunday. User IdentificationThe District of Muskoka is required by law to confirm that users of the site are residents of Muskoka and that the waste deposited at each site originated within one of our six area municipalities. Site staff do this by asking questions upon arrival at the scale house. SafetyWaste sites are out in the elements. They can be muddy in the spring and fall, snowy and icy in the winter and dusty and hot in the summer. Please wear close-toed footwear (like boots or running shoes) when attending the site. The terrain can be uneven. Please watch your step and ensure you have clear sightlines if carrying objects. Waste facilities can attract wildlife, including bears. Bears may seem fun to watch, but they view garbage and litter as their food source. If you see a bear at our site, do not approach it or walk towards it. When bears are present, sites may be temporarily closed for public safety. Loitering is prohibited. Even though waste sites may seem like a fun place to bird watch, bear watch or catch up with neighbours, for your safety we ask that the sites only be used to dispose of waste. Stay in the marked areas, attend only to deposit waste and recycling and please exit the site as soon as you are done disposing of your waste. Staff at District Waste Facilities follow numerous procedures to comply with legislation and to ensure the personal safety of residents and staff. Customers entering waste facilities use the facility at their own risk. For the safety of themselves and others, customers must:
