Select your carts
(property owners only)
In March 2026, the Region of Waterloo will be changing to cart-based collection for garbage and organics.

All residents receiving Region waste services will receive one green cart and one large black cart unless you complete the form below by September 5, 2025, to receive a small black cart. The large black cart fits the equivalent of three full bags of garbage, and the small black cart fits the equivalent of one full bag of garbage. There is only one size of green cart for organics collection.

Carts will be delivered free of charge to residential properties before March of 2026. Information kits will be provided with the carts and include instructions and tips on cart usage.

If after using your black cart, you want to size up or down, you can make that request starting in fall 2026. This is a one-time exchange.

Only the property owner can select to receive a smaller black cart.

Tip: Please type out your complete address. Use the legal tax address of your property.

123 Street Name, City/Town/Township
