❄️ Winter Reminder: Wheelie Bin Placement During Snowy Conditions ❄️![]()
![]()
With snowbanks lining our streets, proper bin placement is extra important to keep collection running smoothly and safely.![]()
![]()
♻️ Please place your wheelie bin:![]()
![]()
- On your property, in front of or beside the snowbank.![]()
![]()
- Not in the roadway (this helps keep streets clear for snowplows and traffic).![]()
![]()
- With the wheels facing your house and the lid opening toward the street.![]()
![]()
- With at least 1m of space around the bin so our truck’s automated arm can safely grab it.![]()
![]()
🚛 Our trucks use automated arms, which means drivers do not exit the vehicle. If a bin is blocked by snow, placed on top of a snowbank, or set in the road, the arm may not be able to safely reach it.![]()
![]()
Thank you for helping us collect efficiently while keeping roads safe for everyone this winter! ❄️
