Curbside collection is undertaken by the City of Abbotsford using a fully automated cart-based collection system for single family homes and duplexes across the City.
Food and yard waste is combined and collected in a green cart. Recycling is placed unbagged in a blue cart. Garbage is place bagged or unbagged in a grey cart. The green compost cart is collected weekly, and the blue recycling cart and grey garbage cart are collected every second week on alternating weeks. For more information visit the City's Contamination Remediation Plan.
Get the Abbotsford Curbside Collection App to access your collection schedule, Waste Wizard, and information about where to find the closest recycling depot or drop-off location right from your smart phone or tablet.
