Leaf and Yard Waste Collection

Starting the week of April 28, regular bi-weekly curbside collection for leaf and yard waste will resume across the County of Simcoe (excluding Barrie and Orillia). Residents will receive three collection weeks, coinciding with their garbage collection weeks.

Please place leaf and yard waste at the curb by 7 a.m. on Monday of your collection week and leave it out for the week if not picked up on your regular garbage day. Accepted materials include leaves, grass, garden waste, and bundled branches. Use kraft paper yard waste bags, cardboard boxes, or open-ended rigid containers. For full details and schedule updates, visit: simcoe.ca/yardwaste or download the Simcoe County Collects App.
