Household WasteHousehold waste collection for the citizens of the Village of Saint-Antoine is every Wednesday morning. Waste must be placed at curbside before 6:30 am on collection day.

The 3 sources program, which is now mandatory, asks citizens to separate their waste at home into three bags of different color: green bag for organic waste, blue bag for recyclable waste and clear bag for everything else. The green bag is picked up every week while the blue bag and the clear bag are picked up on alternating weeks. Waste that does not comply with this sorting will not be collected.

Here are the general guidelines to follow in order to ensure that waste is picked up:
  • Garbage must be easily accessible and clearly visible from the street, but should not be placed on the sidewalk or in the street.
  • If plastic containers, garbage bins on wheels or permanent boxes are used for garbage, the designated colored bags for the week’s collection should be placed on top. Collection workers will not go through the garbage bins to collect bags for safety reasons.
  • During the winter season, plastic containers or garbage bins on wheels must not be too close to the street, nor behind or on a snowbank to not interfere with snow removal. They should also be cleared of any snow and ice.
  • It is also strongly recommended that green bags containing organic waste be placed in a plastic container, a garbage bin on wheels or a permanent box to avoid a mess. To make sure that all the bags are picked-up and for safety reasons, green bags should be placed last in the bin.

The sorting list and the collection calendar are available on the Kent Regional Service Commission website. This information is also available on the Kent Services mobile app, which can be downloaded from Apple and Android devices.
