The city has missed its own deadline three times, but the long-awaited move to a city-wide green bin program appears to actually be in site.
The city’s curbside green bin program will begin the week of Jan. 15, 2024.
In it, Londoners will be able to put food waste such as fruit and vegetable skins, meat, spoiled leftovers, and other inedible food waste.
Approximately 120,000 green bins will be delivered between Monday and mid-December to homes that currently place their garbage and recycling at the curb.
You can find out more about the rollout here.
Inside the green bin dropped off at homes will be a copy of the new 2024 Waste Reduction and Conservation Guide (more commonly known as the garbage collection calendar).
The new guide will contain information on collection dates beginning January 15, 2024, how to use the kitchen container and green bin, what materials go inside the green bin, what materials must not be placed there, and how and when it should be placed at the curb.
