Storm Event – Debris Disposal

Storm

For disposal of leaves and small to medium sized branches, please refer to the collection calendar for your area to get details on your next organics or Leaf and Yard Waste collection day: https://www.westhants.ca/waste-and-recycling.html

- Excess construction, demolition and renovation debris (e.g. wood, drywall, carpet, etc.) can be taken to the West Hants GFL Landfill

 

- Food waste from fridges and freezers that have gone bad due to power outages must still be separated from the packaging before disposal. 

 

Please note: Regular curbside guidelines still apply. Please check your collection calendar or visit https://westhants.ca/waste-and-recycling.html to review collection guidelines for your area. 

 


Hiring Debris Removal Services:

If you hire an individual or company to remove flood-related debris, ask them to provide a scale ticket from the disposal site they are hauling the waste to. This helps ensure waste isn’t being dumped illegally. 


Take the guesswork out of sorting your waste!  

West Hants has a FREE Waste App, R6RECYCLES, that allows you to search from thousands of waste items to learn what goes where in WHRM!
