Solid Waste Disposal

Solid waste is collected once weekly for residential and twice weekly for commercial.  After the purchase of a new garbage lift system and garbage truck the Village of Burns Lake implemented a new bylaw requiring all residents and businesses to utilize the new bins compatible with the new truck.  This will speed up the collection process and ensure the health and safety of the Public Works employees during this process.  The new cans are extremely durable and require a one-time purchase from the Village of Burns Lake unless they are damaged in some way. 

Garbage Collection

Residential: Every Wednesday – be sure to have your garbage can at the curb by 7:00am
Commercial: Tuesday and Friday
Please note: due to some statutory holidays, the schedule may change

Waste Collection Bylaw No 938 2013
