Collection Day Adjustments - Garbage and Organics Collection

 

We are revising some Greener Garbage collection routes to maximize efficiency and reduce emissions. These changes start March 28, 2025 and will result in a *new* collection day for certain Saanich residences. It is important that residents have their garbage and organics cart out by 7:00 a.m. on collection day during this changeover period. 

 

We want you to stay in the know – check the Greener Garbage app and online tool for service changes and updates. Sign up today for notifications!  Please share any questions or concerns by email to:greenergarbage@saanich.ca

 

Never miss your collection day!

Use our online notification tools to remind you when to take your garbage and organics to the curb.

Download the Greener Garbage App (App Store or Google Play) and set up your notification preferences.
 

*Saanich collects on Statutory Holidays. If your calendar shows collection on a Statutory Holiday, place carts at the curb.
