Garbage
All waste generated in the Central Okanagan is transported to the Glenmore Landfill. Learning how to dispose of waste in a responsible way will help extend the life of our only local landfill.
Curbside collection
The RDCO and member municipalities provide curbside cart collection for garbage from single family dwellings on a weekly basis.
Transfer stations
Residents in the Central Okanagan West Electoral Area that do not have curbside cart collection can use their local transfer station:

The RDCO does not provide waste collection services to multi-unit buildings, like apartments or condos.Multi-unit buildings are serviced by private waste haulers. Questions regarding waste or recycling are best directed to strata councils, property managers or the specific waste hauler.
