Garbage and recyclable materials are picked up on Thursday, every other week between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Compostable materials are collected on Fridays, and the frequency varies with the season. During the fall and winter months (October to March), collections are made only once a month. Thereafter, they will gradually increase to weekly for the summer months (June-July-August).

- No commercial or construction material will be picked up.
ABC du bac
L’ABC du bac is a sorting tool that allows users to find, according to the item or material to be recycled, the place on the MRC territory where they can dispose of it.
The directory can be consulted by Internet users via a search engine accessible on the ABC des bacs website at http://www.abcdesbacs.com/bottin/.
