| I'm a new resident: what are wheelie bins and how do they work? |
|
Garbage & Recycling (Waste Management) services are contracted to the Bluewater Recycling Association, through the use of "wheelie bins". If you have moved to a new home, the previous owners should have left the wheelie bins at your new home. If you are in a new home or do not have wheelie bins at your new property, please contact Bluewater Recycling Association to order new bins online or phone them at 1-800-265-9799. If you move, you must leave your wheelie bins at your previous address, as they are bar coded to the property. |
