The Village of Port Clements bills it, on the regional district's behalf, in the Village's quarterly utility bill. The Village's page does not state the amount, and mentions no recycling or organics collection.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Put your bins at the end of your driveway by 8:00 a.m. on Friday.\n2. For extra bags beyond 2 bins, buy a $2 garbage bag tag from the Village Office, 36 Cedar Avenue West, and attach it to each extra bag.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- Residents can put out 2 standard trash bins. The page does not state bin sizes.\n- For questions on the service, see the North Coast Regional District garbage page, ncrdbc.com/services/waste/garbage, or call the Village Office on 250-557-4295.","sources":[{"url":"https://portclements.ca/municipal-services/garbage-collection/","title":"Garbage Collection, Village of Port Clements","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://portclements.ca/contact-us/","title":"Contact Us, Village of Port Clements","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://portclements.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2019_PortClements_CWPP_5Jan2021.pdf","title":"https://portclements.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2019_PortClements_CWPP_5Jan2021.pdf","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 7 of 7 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/port-clements/garbage-collection/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/port-clements/garbage-collection.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/port-clements/garbage-collection.json"}}
