Town Clean-up Information

Spring Cleanup 2024: May 6th - 10th

(Register now)

Town Clean-up occurs twice a year: once in the spring during the month of May (typically the first full week of May), and once in fall during the month of October (typically the week following Thanksgiving). During cleanup, you may register to have garden or yard waste and other refuse or household waste picked up from in front of your home and taken to the Transfer Station. Free compostable bags can be picked up at the Town Office (max 5 per person per visit). Please note that the pickup can not take any household hazardous waste (paint, spray cans oil, fuel, etc), toxic waste, or dangerous objects. All waste must comply with the transfer station regulations.

The Town will only collect yard waste from addresses that have been registered for a pickup!

To register for a pickup, please fill out the form on this page.

The Town will be doing pickups from a different section of Town each day during the week, so be sure to indicate your section of Town in the form, and make note of your pickup day (click on the map below for help identifying which section of Town you live in). All garbage and debris must be taken to the curb by 9:00 am. on the day of your pickup, and will be collected sometime during the day.

Conditions:

  1. Town Cleanup is for domestic garbage only, construction debris or waste due to new or renovated buildings will not be collected.

  3. All debris must be taken to the curb, the Town crew will not do any work or pickup any debris on private property.

Town Clean-up Pickup Registration

Provide a number you can be reached at during the day in case the pickup crews need to ask you a question.

Please indicate what type of waste you would like to have picked up so the Town crews will know what equipment they need to bring (wood chipper for sticks, flatbed truck for appliances/couches, etc.). The Town will pickup anything that is accepted at the transfer station, including items that require a permit if the proper permit has been obtained in advance. A full listing of items that are, or are not accepted at the transfer station is available on the garbage collection page (cardston.ca/garbage).

Please select the day for the section of town you live in. Refer to the map above if you need help.
