Garbage & Recycling

The City of Peterborough operates a curb-side garbage and recycling removal program that collects disposable and recyclable items from residential neighbourhoods once per week. Collection occurs in a different neighbourhood each day; to find out which day of the week your garbage and recycling will be collected, please consult The City of Peterborough’s Waste Removal Route Map.

The types of materials that can be put into the garbage or recycling are regulated by the City of Peterborough. To learn about the specific guidelines for disposable and recyclable items, please consult the City of Peterborough’s Waste Management Site.
