Weekly Garbage Collection Resumes Over the Holidays

December 12, 2022

Weekly garbage collection returns over the holiday season from December 19 to December 30, 2022. We will switch back to biweekly garbage collection over the winter months from January 2 until March 31, 2023.

The additional holiday garbage pickup does not apply to participants of the food and yard waste pilot service. All recycling and food and yard waste will be picked up as usual.

The City encourages residents to reduce, reuse and recycle to keep their holidays green and put less waste in their brown carts. Follow our “Naughty” and “Nice” list to make the most of those blue carts and Big Blue Bins.

Nice (recyclable):

Plain non-foil wrapping paper
Paper cards and envelopes
Paper gift bags and boxes
Cardboard boxes
Metal cookie tins

Naughty (non-recyclable):

Foil and glittery wrapping paper
Tissue paper
Padded envelopes & bubble wrap
Ribbons and bows
Styrofoam packaging
Holiday decorations & string lights

Residents can sign up to receive free reminders that tell them when garbage, recycling and food and yard waste will be collected. To sign up for notifications, visit Regina.ca/waste or download the Regina Waste App.
