Weekly garbage collection is returning to Regina for the summer months.

City crews will begin collecting garbage weekly next Monday, April 5.

Residents are reminded to follow four steps to ensure their garbage collection runs smoothly:

• Fill it
  -Bag or bundle all waste items, specifically tissues/napkins and cleaning wipes.
  -Keep cart lid closed.
  -Don’t overfill cart or leave loose items on the ground.
• Place it
  -Roll cart out to the curb or alley by 7:30 AM on collection days
  -Ensure the cart is properly placed to avoid the driver from handling your garbage cart manually.
• Space it
  -Leave one metre of space around your cart so the collection trucks can empty the bin properly.
• Store it
  -Roll empty carts back to a secure location on your property or against a fence after collection.
  -Keep carts from blocking roadways and alleys.
