Biweekly garbage collection begins in Regina

Garbage bin in Regina.

Starting Monday the city of Regina will begin collecting your garbage, every other week.

Curbside garbage will be picked up every second week from now until the end of March.

The change was originally put forward as a pilot project to help city hall save money. Council plans to re-visit the issue in the spring to decide if this will be permanent.

There will be one exception to the biweekly collection schedule, between December 23 and January 5 garbage will be picked up weekly to account for holiday waste.
