YOUR GREEN CART GUIDE

Use your green cart for food scraps and yard and garden trimmings. Sorting material right helps Roseridge produce high-quality Re-Source Premium Compost for use throughout our region.

SIMPLE RULE: IF IT DOESN’T GROW, IT DOESN’T GO

Keep it simple: food scraps and yard and garden trimmings go in.

Manufactured packaging stays out—even when labelled compostable, biodegradable, plant-based, natural, sustainable or eco-friendly.

Most of this packaging can go in regular recycling starting Oct. 1, 2026.

TIPS TO HELP KEEP YOUR GREEN CART CLEAN

Tips to help keep your green cart clean

  • Set your cart out on every collection day, even when it is not full.
  • Sprinkle baking soda in the bottom to absorb moisture and odours.
  • Drain food scraps and keep liquids out of the cart.
  • Freeze food scraps in a reusable container until collection day, then empty them loose into the cart.
  • After collection, clean the cart with white vinegar and allow it to dry.
