Ottawa households are now limited to three items of garbage at the curb every two weeks, as the city of Ottawa limits curbside trash.
The city has implemented a new three item garbage limit on all households that receive curbside collection as part of a plan to reduce the amount of waste heading to the landfill and to help extend the life of the Trail Road Waste Facility until 2049.
“The new limit will encourage households to rethink what truly needs to go to landfill and what could be reduced, reused, recycled or composted instead,” the city says.
“Reducing unnecessary waste from going to landfill helps keeps disposal and collection costs lower. It also helps extend the life of our Trail Road Waste Facility Landfill as we explore new options for waste disposal.”
