To help avoid attracting bears, we recommend: Though carts are not responsible for more bears in Simcoe County, responsible waste habits will help to limit their impact. Automated cart collection occurs successfully in may parts of North America with higher and larger bear populations, including British Columbia, Alaska, the Yukon Territories, etc. While bears do inhabit parts of Simcoe County, they do not pose a significant obstacle to automated cart collection. Organic - One cart with a green lid with a gravity locking mechanism is two and a half times larger than our current green bins to encourage greater diversion of organics and account for seasonal fluctuations such as for pumpkins, pet waste, turkey carcasses Īnimal interference in waste is common across all methods of waste collection, and in all areas.
But thats none of my business meme waste full#
Garbage - One medium-sized cart with a black lid for garbage has enough space for two full large black bags
Recycling - One large cart with a blue lid for recyclables is equivalent to four of our current recycling bins Click here for more information on our Size Swap program. Smaller sizes of garbage and recycling carts are available (fees may apply). Here are the precise dimensions of the default carts: If you require additional capacity, extra recycling bins or tagged garbage bags (5 garbage bags per serviced unit maximum) can be placed at the curb beside the carts. The default cart sizes were chosen based on the average waste needs per household in the County of Simcoe, accounting for future needs. In addition to reducing windblown litter, the new organics cart is 2 and half times larger than our current green bin to further encourage greater diversion and reduce garbage
Good for the environment: Our automated cart collection doesn't just improve curbside aesthetics.This expands the labour force so service delays due to labour shortages don't occur Safer and more predictable service: As well as being great for residents, the automated system is safer and less strenuous for collection workers, and helps fight transmission of pathogens.Require less storage space: You can reduce your storage footprint for your waste by consolidating smaller bins, boxes and containers into the larger carts.More capacity: Instead of several smaller bins and bags, residents will have just two carts ready to roll to the curb each week.Easier to use: Carts offer the added convenience of wheels, lids, and a gravity locking system on organics carts that opens automatically when carts are collected.Carts are used across North America by an estimated 60-70% of municipalities because they are easier, safer and provide a better overall service to residents. Our four-day collection schedule helps ensure a more consistent service, with the flexibility for our vehicles to return to any missed areas on Fridays so residents no longer have to store their materials for an extra week if missed on their regular collection day
