Residential Garbage Pickup

With Salt Spring Garbage & Recycling, you can be sure your materials are collected on-time — and most importantly — handled the right way for the environment.

Home Garbage Pickup

Running a home can be a full-time job and daily garbage disposal is simply part of it. 

Let Salt Spring Garbage & Recycling handle your residential garbage pickup. Our services are both beneficial and cost-effective, offering fast, reliable, and professional garbage collection across Salt Spring Island, BC.

Schedule & pricing

Our residential pickup pricing is straightforward and consistent for everyone. Here’s how it works:

  • Collection Frequency: Every 2 weeks
  • Container Requirements: Garbage must be in a wheeled container no larger than 65 gallons. If the lid closes, we will take it. No bags are to be left outside the container.

Pricing Options:

  • Monthly Billing: $40 per month
  • 3 Months in Advance: $36 per month
  • Annual Billing: $33 per month

Choose the payment plan that best suits your needs and enjoy reliable garbage collection service.

If you need multiple toters picked up every two weeks, no problem, just select an extra subscription at checkout.

Please note, your toter must be compatible with our lifter to use this service. If you don’t have one, we sell compatible toters and will deliver them to your home.

Important Announcement: Transition to Automated Billing System

Starting September 1, 2024, we will be discontinuing the sale of bag tags and transitioning to an automated billing system. To ensure continued uninterrupted service, all current and new bag tag customers are encouraged to sign up in order to be placed on the new route sheet for pickup. You will have the option to chose monthly, quarterly, or yearly billing.

Bag tags will be accepted for pick up on route until March 31, 2025. After this date, any remaining bag tags will only be valid for pick up on route if you have registered for pick up with our new automated system (can be used for bags that don’t fit in the can). However, you will still be able to use any remaining tags at the Transfer station on Blackburn until they are all gone.
