Fees


Each residential property can put out ONE can of regular garbage per collection day, and up to three cans, bags or bundles of organic refuse or yard trimmings. The fee is included in your property taxes.

If you want to put out a second can of regular garbage, you will need to purchase a second can decal from Bowen Waste Solutions at 604-947-2255 or [email protected].

For example, if you have a secondary suite on your property and you want to put out two cans every pickup day, you will need to purchase an annual second can decal.

If you have an occasional need to put out more than one can of regular garbage, you can purchase a single-use decal.

To order your decal, please send an email to [email protected] with the subject line, Decal Request, and include your address in the message field. Once you have ordered your decal, payment can be made by etransfer to [email protected].

Upon receipt of your order and payment, a decal will be put aside for pick-up at BIRD.

Please allow 48 - 72 hours for processing.
