Regular Garbage
For interim measures during COVID-19 please read updates.
All collected garbage on Bowen Island is transported to the North Shore Transfer Station, so our rules about what can and cannot go into the garbage are identical to Metro Vancouver's rules.
The following materials are not allowed in your regular garbage bin:
- recyclable materials
- food waste and other organic refuse
- hazardous materials
- product stewardship materials
Each residential property can put out ONE can of regular garbage per collection day. Any additional cans require a paid decal.
