Keeping your garbage cans clean is a chore – but it’s a necessary one, especially in the Spring and Summer. Vancouver is the kind of city you can go snowboard and hit the beach in the same day. Our garbage cans have similarly varied backdrops. From the forests of North Van to the alleys of East Vancouver, garbage cans – and keeping them clean – play a vital role in how our city looks – and smells.

One of the first steps to manage your waste is to understand the Vancouver collection schedule. What day does your garbage, organics, and recycling get picked up? This allows you to time when you fill your bins with your collection day. It’s vital to have good timing for your green waste – organics bin cleaning is our most popular service for a reason. Green waste is generally to blame for increased pest activity although garbage gets stinky too!
