From July 2023 to the end of December 2025, all municipalities in Ontario will transition their blue box program to a new collection model.
Under this new model, the companies that produce blue box materials will be required to fully fund and operate the recycling system.
In other solid waste news, Guelph has started the downtown waste project with the following goals:
- to prioritize public space containers for use by pedestrians visiting the downtown, and,
- to implement a dedicated collection strategy for downtown residential, industrial, commercial, and institutional properties.
