Celebrate Waste Collector Appreciation Day

Our waste collectors help keep our streets clean all year round. Last year they collected 245,046 tonnes of residential waste from 396,876 households, twice as heavy as Toronto's CN Tower! Safe, clean communities depend on the hard work that our waste collectors do on a daily basis.

As part of North American Waste Collector week, the City will celebrate our waste collectors at a free family event this Sunday at Compost 'S cool.

Date: Sunday, June 16
Time: 1 to 4 p.m.
Location: Compost 'S cool (near Fort Edmonton Park)
Cost: Free

Come chat with a waste collector, check out a garbage truck, make thank you cards and learn how to help keep your collectors safe and one time.

Holiday Waste Collection Changes

The City of Edmonton has made the following changes to its waste collection schedule.

There is no waste collection on Tuesday, December 25, 2018, and Tuesday, January 1, 2019. If your waste collection falls on these dates, your waste will be collected on Monday, December 24, 2018, and Monday, December 31, 2018, respectively.

All other collection days remain the same and collectors will be working as usual, including Boxing Day.

The City encourages residents to make collection easier by cleaning ice and snow away from collections areas and spreading sand on icy areas. Heavy and bulky items cannot be collected through residential collection and should be taken to Eco Stations. Residents can also drop off larger items at the Reuse Centre if they're still in good condition.

Residents can try the free WasteWise app to help them sort their waste.

City Reports Focus on Future of Waste Services

On Thursday, August 23, the City's Utility Committee will discuss eight separate reports about the future of waste management in Edmonton.

Of the eight reports, three ask councilors to make decisions on the following topics:

• Alternate Collection and Diversion Options for Grass, Leaf and Yard Waste
• Source Separated Organics Pilot

"Years ago, we set an ambitious goal: to divert 90 per cent of residential waste from the landfill. Right now, we're not close enough and we have to look at new ways to do things," says Michael Labrecque, Branch Manager, Waste Services. "For over a year, we've reviewed our programs and looked at what other cities are doing well. From this, we know we need to put more emphasis on waste reduction and prevention, and that means

looking at how residents set out their waste, what waste gets collected, when, and how.
This is a topic that affects every Edmontonian, and we look forward to supporting City Council as they determine the best direction for our city."

Below is a quick summary of what Edmontonians can expect to see debated at Utility Committee:

• Waste Services' Four-year Business Plan: Provides a strategic overview for
  2019-2022. This report outlines the priorities for the upcoming four-year budget
  cycle, including key initiatives, performance indicators and the utility rate.

• Waste Services: 25-year Strategic Outlook: Outlines key focus areas for the
  updated waste management strategy as it pertains to regulated waste services
  (such as single-unit and multi-unit properties), as well as non-regulated  waste

City Releases Progress Report on Energy Transition Strategy

The City released its annual progress report of the Energy Transition Strategy, a comprehensive climate change mitigation strategy approved by City Council in 2015. The report highlights programs and milestones achieved in 2017 and informs citizens on upcoming initiatives over the next year.

“The actions outlined in this report help citizens and businesses to lower their greenhouse gas emissions and take advantage of rebate programs offered by other levels of government while maximizing the economic benefits of a low carbon economy,” said Paul Ross, Branch Manager of Economic and Environmental Sustainability at the City of Edmonton. 

Highlights of the report include:

• In 2017 the City of Edmonton launched two nation-leading labelling programs: EnerGuide for Homes for the residential sector and Building Energy Benchmarking for the commercial sector. Approximately 500 homes participated in EnerGuide and 83 buildings participated in year one of the Benchmarking program.
• 2018 will advance solar power uptake in Edmonton with the launch of a new solar map showing the energy potential of roofs in Edmonton and new tools to leverage provincial rebates. 2018 will also bring advancement of LRT, Blatchford, and new projects such as the Corporate Climate Leaders program.
• The City is updating its greenhouse gas management plan to meet its 2035 reduction targets and will provide detailed emissions data and future emission projections to Council in May.

Edmonton Waste Management Centre Welcomes Their First Artist-in-Residence, Leanne Olson

The Edmonton Waste Management Centre (EWMC) is a unique collection of advanced waste processing and research facilities where municipal waste is transformed into useful resources. The Centre is 233 hectares in size; the Composting Facility alone occupies space equivalent to almost five football fields. On average, 4,500 trucks bearing 9,800 tonnes of material cross the scale every week. Over 15,000 students, teachers and adults tour the Centre each year.

“We’re excited for this opportunity to host an artist-in-residence at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre,” said Michael Robertson, contract manager with the City of Edmonton’s Materials Recovery Facility. “Leanne’s passion for capturing change in the natural world connects to our goals of waste reduction and environmental stewardship. I think that her work here will provide a fresh perspective on waste and a new way to engage with Edmonton residents and our staff.”

In September, the Edmonton Arts Council and the City of Edmonton put out the call for an artist to take residency at this massive municipal waste facility. More than 25 local artists applied for the opportunity, and due to her artistic focus and environmental interests, local artist Leanne Olson was ultimately selected for the position.

Olson is a photo-based artist born in Toronto and raised in Edmonton. In 2002, she received a Bachelor of Arts with a major in Film & Media Studies from the University of Alberta. Olson also has a history of working and engaging with the community, with experience as a lead artist in the print studio at the Nina Haggerty Centre for the Arts and as an ongoing community art project facilitator with the Bissell Centre in Edmonton.

Christmas Tree Collection Starts January 9

The City will start collecting natural Christmas trees on Tuesday, January 9, 2018. Trees will be picked up for recycling within three weeks of this date, but not necessarily on residents' scheduled waste collection days.

Residents are asked to:

• Set natural Christmas trees out for collection by 7 a.m. on Tuesday, January 9, 2018.

• Place their un-bagged tree on its side next to garbage bags.

• Cut extra-large trees into two-metre (approximately six-foot) lengths.

• Remove all ornaments, tinsel, garlands, nails, screws, and tree stands, so that the trees are acceptable for composting.

Apartment and condominium residents can take their natural Christmas trees, free of charge until January 31, 2018 to:

• One of the City's Community Recycling Depots (place the tree next to the entrance or exit of the depot and make sure it does not block access).

• One of the City's four Eco Stations (staff will guide you to where you can place your tree).

Christmas trees should not be placed in or near apartment garbage or recycling bins.

In 2017, the City collected 10,779 trees, weighing over 115 tonnes, for recycling. Trees are chipped and composted at the Edmonton Waste Management Centre. The City uses the wood chips to make various types of compost for horticulture, agriculture, and land reclamation.

The Reuse Centre accepts articial tree donations, as long as the tree is in a box and includes all parts. The donated trees are made available for purchase by organizations and individuals for reuse.

Litter Audit Reveals a Cleaner City

Citizens, community groups and businesses worked together throughout the past year to help make Edmonton cleaner this year. The results of Capital City Clean Up's 2017 Litter Audit show a continued trend towards less litter on Edmonton's streets.

"The results of this year's Litter Audit show big improvements in the amount of littler on Edmont's streets," said Don Belanger, manager of Capital City Clean Up. "This downward trend in littler is thanks to thousands of volunteers, many community groups and local businesses that continue to step up and get involved."

The audit was conducted by AET Group in June which examined litter type and size at 123 preselected locations across Edmonton as well as along Yellowhead Trail between 107 Street NW and the Beverly Bridge.

Highlights

Since last year:

• 35 per cent reduction in large litter
• 26 per cent reduction in small litter

Since 2009 when the audits began:

• 74 per cent reduction in large litter
• 59 per cent reduction in small litter

Along Yellowhead Trail:

• 50 per cent reduction in large litter from the last audit in 2014
• 19 per cent reduction in large litter from the baseline audit in 2010

Miscellaneous plastic and cigarette butts continue to account for the majority of large and small litter found. Although cigarette litter counts decreased, more work is still needed to address areas such as traffic intersections and locations where smokers congregate to smoke. Estimates show that more than 900 million cigarettes are smoked each year in Edmonton. More than 67 million butts are collected annually in the City of Edmonton's 719 outdoor ashtrays located in 13 commercial districts city wide.

Capital City Clean Up's 2018 litter management program will continue in the spring. It promotes a unified approach to keeping Edmonton clean by engaging volunteers, schools, community groups and local businesses.

Results of the litter audits since 2009 are available to the City of Edmonton's Open Data Portal.

City Launches New Change for Climate Initiative for Edmontonians

The City of Edmonton has launched Change for Climate, a new initiative to encourage citizens to take action on climate change.

The initiative is anchored around a new blog called ChangeForClimate.ca where residents are provided a spectrum of 30 actions to help reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. The actions cover a wide range of impact levels, from hanging clothes instead of using a dryer to installing a solar panel system on a roof.

“Edmonton has emerged as a sustainability-focused city, and our citizens care about sustainability,” says Councillor Michael Walters. “Change for Climate will serve as a tool where citizens can learn and practice ways to reduce their carbon footprint. They will be provided with a real opportunity to act on climate change.”

The Change for Climate initiative is a major component of the City’s goal of creating a 35% reduction in the city’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2035 (below 2005 levels). The blog will provide Edmontonians with the opportunity to share their Change for Climate stories, highlighting why and how they are taking action. It also encourages citizens to select actions from the spectrum, participate on related City programs and share their commitments on social media.

Edmonton is part of global social, economic and environmental systems that support our quality of life. These systems are being disrupted by climate change. We have an opportunity to act now and act locally to protect our quality of life, our health and our economy. Our actions in our community have local and global impacts.

Edmontonians will have many opportunities to engage and participate in the new Change for Climate initiative. Over the next six months, various community events will take place starting with Change for Climate Talks on Dec.7, an evening in which 12 speakers will bring fast paced and inspiring presentations on what we can do to act on climate change. More events are planned in the New Year leading up to the 2018 Cities and Climate Change Science Conference March 5-7.

Only YOU Can Prevent Dutch Elm Disease

Did you know Edmonton is home to one of the world’s largest concentrations of elm trees uninfected with Dutch elm disease?

Prevention of Dutch elm disease starts by keeping elm trees healthy. During the colder months (October 1 to March 31), prune dead wood from your elm trees. Dead wood is a habitat for the insect that causes Dutch elm disease. (The City is responsible for pruning and maintaining trees on boulevards.) It is illegal to prune between April 1 and September 30.

To Safely Dispose of Elm Wood:

• Small elm branches can be bundled and placed at the curb with regular household waste. Bundles must be smaller than 1.2 m (4 ft) and 20 kg (44 lbs).
• Large elm branches and logs can be taken to special elm disposal bins at an Eco Station. Drop off is free. Branches must be smaller than 1.2m (4 ft) in order to fit the bins.
• Large loads (more than a half-ton truck) and commercial loads must be taken to the Edmonton Waste Management Centre. Disposal fees apply.

Do not to store wood from fallen or damaged trees, as this increases the risk of spreading Dutch elm and other tree diseases. Fallen trees on private property should be removed by a professional tree removal company. Do not keep or transport fallen elm tree debris for firewood.

Identifying Elm Trees

The elm tree has the following characteristics:

Green, toothed leaves that turn yellow in fall;

Bark that is deeply ridged and grey-brown in color;

A roughly vase- or fountain-like shape;

A height of about 35 metres (115 feet) and trunk diameter of about 175 centimetres (68 inches) at maturity.

Election Sign Takedown

Public Service Announcement

City reminds candidates to remove all signs by midnight Thursday, October 19, 2017

Candidates who ran in the Edmonton Election have until midnight on Thursday, October 19, 2017 to take down signs or face fines.

All election signs must be removed from public property within three days of the election. Starting Friday, October 20, 2017, the City of Edmonton’s Community Standards Peace Officers will begin removing any remaining signs and candidates may be fined up to $250 per sign.

Citizens can call 311 to report concerns about the removal of campaign signs.

The City of Edmonton encourages candidates and residents to recycle plastic or cardboard campaign signs and metal frames at any of these locations:

• Edmonton Waste Management Centre
• Eco Stations
• Recycling Depots (cardboard and plastic signs only - no metal or wood frames)

Signs must be separated from their stakes, and components sorted into the correct bins to be recycled. Large signs must be cut into pieces no larger than 3’ x 3’ (1m x 1m).

Residents may also place cardboard and plastic household lawn signs out with their regular recycling. All frames and stakes should be removed and placed in the garbage or brought to an Eco Station or the Edmonton Waste Management Centre for scrap metal recycling.

For more information, visit campaign signs or how to recycle your sign.

 

Don't Feed the Grass Monster

During the grass growing season (May - August), weekly residential waste can be monstrous, even double the volume collected during the winter. To avoid feeding the Grass Monster, the City is asking residents to go bagless this summer, and leave grass clippings on the lawn.

An average household that bags their clippings sets out 40 to 50 bags of grass each year. Roughly 30,000 tonnes of grass are collected annually, which is equivalent to the weight of 2,382 City buses.

Going bagless has many benefits:

• It’s good for your lawn: the grass clippings protect the soil by keeping moisture in the ground. Also, the clippings break down quickly, naturally fertilizing the lawn with nutrients after each mowing.
• It’s good for you: no bagging and dragging of grass is required, and it reduces the need to water and fertilize your lawn.
• It’s good for the environment: in the summer months, up to half of the waste collected by the City is grass. Going bagless is the easiest, most effective way to reduce waste. 

More than half of Edmonton households already practice going bagless -- join them! By signing up for a Go Bagless lawn sign, you’ll have a chance to win a checkup and tuneup for your mower from the Lawnmower Hospital.

For more information visit edmonton.ca/GoBagless.

It's Time to "Wake Up" Your Compost!

Many Edmontonians compost because they know it’s an easy way to reduce household waste by turning it into a valuable soil enhancement. International Compost Awareness Week (May 7-13) is the ideal time for residents to revitalize their gardens by stirring their compost or taking up composting for the first time!

Do you know how to wake up your compost?
The City of Edmonton is offering the following opportunities
to help residents better understand composting:

• Take a basic or advanced two-hour workshop for only $10 at Compost ‘S cool, located near John Janzen Nature Centre.
  Workshops offered April 23 to May 6.
• Ask the Compost Doctor anything you want to know about compost by calling 780-496-5526 or email compost@edmonton.ca.
• Follow along with the conversation on Facebook@CompostScool. Get pointers and to-do lists for your weekend, plus learn something about organics recycling, every week.

To register for workshops, go to edmonton.ca/eReg or call 311.

WasteWise Spring Cleaning

It's time for indoor and outdoor spring cleaning, and the City of Edmonton is encouraging residents to be waste wise by following some handy tips.

Cleaning inside the house?

• Recycle empty plastic jugs and spray bottles. 
• Cardboard paper towel cores are recyclable, but the used paper towel goes in the garbage.
• Drop off electronics, paint, batteries, lightbulbs, and corrosive or hazardous cleaning products, such as oven cleaners at an Eco Station for FREE
• Large items such as sofas, mattresses, tables can be taken to an Eco Station. A small fee applies.
• Consider reuse!
  Donate items you no longer need to a charity, or pass them on to a family or friend. Check the Reuse Directory to see what can be donated where.
  

Cleaning your yard?

• Leaves and lawn thatch can be set out in a black garbage bag. Keep your bag light; help your collector by keeping your bags under 15 kilograms.
• Tie your branches and brunsh into small bundles no more than 1.2 metres in length, and weighing no more than you can easily lift.
• Put your broken garden hose in the garbage, not the recycling. It can jam machinery at the recycling sorting plant.
• If you waste is collected in the alley, be sure to trim overhanging tree branches to allow easy access for garbage trucks.

Not sure where an item should go? Download our free WasteWise app on your phone or visit edmonton.ca/waste.

Eco Stations are open Saturday and Monday, 9 am to 6:30 pm, closed Friday and Sunday, over the Easter  long weekend. For Eco Station locations and regular hours of operation, visit edmonton.ca/ecostations.

Make sure you set out your waste by 7 am on your collection day. Due to heavier waste volumes in the spring, your waste may be collected earlier than in the winter time.

Create Memories Not Waste

The City of Edmonton encourages you to reduce your holiday waste this season. It may be a time of celebration with elaborate meals, gift exchanges and festive decorations But there are still ways you can cut down on holiday waste  and help the City achieve its goal of diverting 90 per cent of residential waste from landfill.

• Provide memory-making experiences as gifts, like tickets
  to a concert or sporting event, or a family outing to a City attraction.

• Give gift certificates for your special skills such as haircuts, child minding or household repairs.

• Rethink the way you package your presents: consider using scarves, festive flyers or cookie tins. Reuse wrapping materials and decorations from last season.

• Avoid food waste: plan your food in advance, freeze left-overs and donate unopened treats to the food bank.

• After the holidays make sure you recycle boxes, paper (including all non-foil gift wrap), plastic and glass containers, cans and aluminum trays.

• Keep gift bags, tissues and bows to reuse next year, or donate them the City’s Reuse Centre.

Edmonton Eco Stations win North American Award

The City of Edmonton’s commitment to the environment through proper waste disposal is being recognized with a prestigious industry award.

The Eco Stations program received the Gold Excellence Award in the category of Special Waste from the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA). This is the first time the City of Edmonton has won this award.

“Eco Stations play a key role in Edmonton’s integrated waste management system as they enable residents to keep household hazardous waste and electronics out of the environment,” said Chris Ward, Branch Manager for Utility Services at the City of Edmonton. “This recognition is not only a testament to our environmentally sound waste management system but to the residents of Edmonton who use the services and participate in our programs.”

Eco Stations provide convenient drop-off facilities for household hazardous waste (such as paint, batteries and electronics) and for large items that are not appropriate for curbside collection. There are four Eco Stations strategically located in each quarter of the City. Since the inception of the program in 1995, more than 2.7 million customers have been served and 16 million litres of household hazardous waste have been diverted from landfill.

SWANA’s Excellence Awards Program recognizes outstanding solid waste programs and facilities that advance the practice of environmentally and economically sound solid waste management. Programs must demonstrate commitment to utilizing effective technologies and processes in system design and operations, advancing worker and community health and safety, and implementing successful public education and outreach programs.
