Green Cart returns to weekly collection next week

Starting Monday, April 5, Green Carts in Red Deer will shift back to weekly collection as seasonal yard waste increases.

“Now that spring is here and people will start doing more yard work, we are shifting back to weekly Green Cart collection,” said Janet Whitesell, Waste Management Superintendent for The City of Red Deer.

“These seasonal changes in the Green Cart collection schedule supports increasing the efficiency of the cart collection program, while still meeting the collection needs of our cart customers.”

Spring yard work often means additional organic material. Residents are reminded that if their Green Cart is full, extra yard waste can be set next to the full Green Cart for collection.
