Owen Sound is developing a Waste Management Strategy to provide direction on how we manage garbage, recycling, and other waste diversion programs in the City, and we want to hear from you!

The Waste Management Strategy will look at how new approaches to waste services can support a sustainable environment, and work towards diverting more waste from landfill.

Do you have ideas on what the waste management system should look like in the City of Owen Sound? Take the Waste Management Survey to share your thoughts. The survey takes just a few minutes to complete, and will be available until Friday, August 5, 2022.

Visit Our City Owen Sound to learn more about the Waste Management Strategy, Owen Sound’s current system, future needs, and waste management challenges.

The City’s residential collection service currently operates on a bi-weekly waste and collection cycle, with monthly corrugated cardboard collection.
