Waste & Recycling Services Update – What Goes Where

What Goes Where – Mix up means mess ups!

  • Sorting can be tricky, but every decision counts, and we’re here to help you become a sorting pro.
  • Green bins are for food scraps and yard waste, and your blue bin is for acceptable household paper, cardboard and container packaging.
  • Some old and broken household items don’t always have to end up in the black bin, there are a range of programs and services to help divert waste from our landfills and give items a second life.
  • Together, we can make a big impact and become recycling and composting champions.
  • If you’re unsure where an item belongs, visit //calgary.ca/whatgoeswhere to find the Right Bin for the Win!
