Greater West Bench Curbside Collection Open Houses and update.

Updated: Nov 18

Please visit the Regional Connections Project Page - there is a great two-and-a-half-minute video that provides an easy-to-understand overview of the curbside collection carts. Questions? Email solidwaste@rdos.bc.ca or call 250-490-4129.


Standard-size carts will be delivered in June 2025. If the standard cart sizes do not meet your needs, upsizing or downsizing carts can be requested using a cart change-out form. Residents can complete the form online here, at the open house events, at rdos.bc.ca, or by contacting the RDOS Solid Waste team to discuss the best-suited size of carts and any additional costs to the base fees.


The deadline to submit the cart change-out form is Friday, December 13, 2024, after which a $45 delivery fee may apply. Click here to view the standard sizes for the carts as well as the size options and additional monthly costs.


If you own a cart that may fit within the cart size specifications (watch the video referenced above), please email solidwaste@rdos.bc.ca with your name, address, and photos of your cart(s) to have them individually evaluated to be included in curbside collection. After your cart is approved for use, you will receive a one-time rebate towards the cost of collection, and it will be replaced if damaged.
