The City of Winnipeg is adjusting collection days for some residents.

In an effort to make the cart collection system more efficient, changes to some residents collection days are being made. This could affect recycling, garbage and yard waste collection.

59% of customers will be affected and those affected will receive direct mail starting September 18 to confirm their collection day. Changes will come into effect on Monday, October 2.

The City recently signed a new seven-year collection contract with two different contractors to provide the most efficient and best possible service for residents.
