As the Olympic Torch Relay makes its way through North and West Vancouver, please note that there will likely be service recycling collection service disruptions, specifically to our Recycling Drop-off Depot at 29 Riverside Drive. Due to road closures on Main Street and Dollarton Highway, the Depot will be inaccessible between 8:30 am and 10:30 am on Wednesday, February 10 - please plan accordingly. The Torch Relay may also cause collection delays in other areas of the North Shore on Wednesday. Our contractor needs to remain on schedule - if Torch Relay delays are lengthy in any specific areas, those areas may be skipped for the week (due to uncertainty of traffic, etc., that day, we can not predict ahead of time which streets or areas may be affected). If your collection day is Wednesday and your recycling is missed, please bring it in and set it out again the following week. Click here for the Torch Relay map from the North Shore News

Recycling & Garbage Collection Schedules & Guides were delivered to most homes via unaddressed admail (and some hand delivered) the first two weeks of January. If you do not receive your
hardcopy collection schedule by January 20, or receive the schedule of another municipality (this happens in some areas due to postal walk/municipal boundary overlap, plus it seems there have been some errors from Canada Post) please download the digital version
or call 604.984.9730, email

In case of snow accumulations over the winter, please note that there may be some areas where curbside recycling and/or garbage and yard trimmings service may be affected. If there are major service delays or cancellations, we will post that information here, as well as on the three municipal websites. For information on each municipal snow protocol, visit cnv.org, dnv.org, or westvancouver.ca.
