How it works

The RDCO manages curbside yard waste and E360S collects it, under the Solid Waste Management Regulation Bylaw 1899. The yard waste cart is emptied every second week, March 1 to December 31 according to the District and RDCO pages. The 2009 bylaw says March to the end of November, so check the collection calendar.

Steps

  1. Put yard waste loose in the 240 L cart with the lid closed. No plastic bags or other containers, and no bundling with string, ties or tape.
  2. Keep branches and prunings to 5 cm (2 inches) thick and under 1 m (3 ft) long.
  3. Put the cart out by 7 a.m. on collection day.
  4. For extra yard waste, go to the Asquith Road Transfer Station, 2640 Asquith Road, West Kelowna (Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.; gate closes 3:50 p.m.), or Glenmore Landfill, John Hindle Drive, Kelowna (daily, 7:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.). Peachland has no landfill.

Good to know

  • Not accepted in the cart: bags of any kind, dirt, sod, rocks, tree stumps, kitchen or food waste, garbage, animal feces or cat litter, construction materials, landscape fabric, and large amounts of bark mulch.
  • The District's garbage page gives the same West Kelowna site with different hours and a different street number than its yard waste page. Confirm with the RDCO at 250-469-6250.
  • Backyard composting is also suggested.
