The Town of Ponoka’s annual back alley collection of compostable yard waste is all set to begin on Tuesday, May 24 after the Victoria Day long weekend.
Town officials say crews will make one pass down each back alley in Ponoka to collect yard waste (grass clippings, leaves, weeds, branches from three to five feet) in excess of what will fit into your green cart. Residents are asked to place all materials for pick up in a pile at their back alley no later than Monday, May 23.
If you do not have a back alley, you’re asked to place your yard waste at the front of your property near the curb where it is visible for pick up and clear of the roadway.
Residents are asked not to bag compostable yard waste that is placed at the curb or back alley for the community clean up. Town officials note that bagged yard waste will not be picked up to avoid contaminating the compost pile at the Town’s Waste Transfer Station.
