Heads up, starting on September 30, 2024, the City of Ottawa will lower its limit for curbside garbage collection to three items on collection day from the current limit of six bags. This will help reduce unnecessary waste going to the landfill.

There will continue to be no limit to how much residents can set out through curbside recycling and green bins.

How many bags, items or cans can be put out? How often is garbage collected? When and where to put your garbage? Visit the City of Ottawa website for answers to these questions, and more.
