The City of Dauphin is notifying residents that the City's Fall Clean-Up campaign will commence on Tuesday, October 11th.
According to the City, crews will be making one pass through the City starting with the Day 4 area on the garbage schedule. Once the Day 4 area is complete, crews will continue in reverse order through the remainder of the four-day cycle.
They are warning residents to have their yard waste ready before crews arrive, since this will only be a one-time pickup.
City crews will be only collecting the following items at no cost:
- Accumulated garden waste
- Grass
- Leaves
- Shrubs and tree branches less than 15 centimetres (6 inches) in diameter (2.44 metres or 8 feet maximum and piled parallel)
The City says that the items mentioned above will only be collected if they are free of household waste, hazardous waste and recyclable materials, and are in a clearly identifiable pile or packaged in biodegradable bags or boxes.
They also say that materials other than the ones listed above will not be collected and that City crews will not be sorting through items.
