Collection and Disposal of Residential Garbage and Household Food Waste Bylaw No. 745, 2009, Amendment Bylaw No. 769, 2010

This bylaw outlines the rules for residential garbage and food waste collection in the Town of View Royal. It mandates that all eligible households must use the town's collection service. Residents are provided with specific garbage and food waste containers and are charged a service fee, which appears as a line item on their property tax bill. The bylaw specifies collection schedules, container sizes and weights, and proper placement of containers for curbside pickup. Extra garbage requires special 'extra bag' decals. The bylaw also covers what happens if collection is missed due to contractor or resident error, as well as procedures for handling adverse weather conditions. It clearly defines acceptable and unacceptable materials for both garbage and food waste, reserving the right to reject non-compliant waste. Residents can request on-site collection for an extra fee. Failure to comply with the bylaw can result in warnings, suspension of service, and penalties.
