Curbside Collection

The City of North Vancouver provides curbside garbage, recycling and green can (food scraps and yard trimmings) collection to more than 8,500 households. The City is organized into four collection areas (A, B, C, D), which determines your collection day (Monday through Thursday, except on weeks with a statutory holiday).

Garbage is collected every other week. Recycling, green cans and yard trimming are collected weekly.
