Regular collection days are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, depending upon the area in which you reside (subject to change due to certain statutory holidays). All waste is required to be set out to the curb by 7:00 am on the morning of collection day.

Household waste includes:
• All kitchen and table waste, of animal or vegetable origin, resulting from the preparation or consumption of food.
• Any waste as a result of day-to-day living, excluding recyclables and hazardous wastes.

• All recyclables should be set out to the curb by no later than 7:00 a.m. on the morning of your collection day.
• Recyclables will be collected the same day as household waste.

Electronics Recycling

The Port Burwell Fire Fighters Association are collecting used electronic items at the Port Burwell Fire Hall, 55451 Nova Scotia Line (bin located behind the hall). The Fire Fighters are using this as an opportunity to raise funds for fire equipment. ONLY electronic items can be accepted.

See the 2026 Waste Collection Calendar for information about pickup schedules (including holiday schedule), zones and additional programs for waste collection.

The 2027 Non-Expiry Garbage Bag Tag Allotment Kits are now available for pick up at the Municipal Office during regular business hours. 

These kits provide eligible residential units with 52 bag tags and commercial units with 86 bag tags. Agricultural properties can obtain an additional 16 bag tags upon verification of the farm tax class at the Municipal Office.

Please Note: Property owners are responsible to pick up the kit(s) for their Residential and Commercial properties, available ONLY at the Municipal Office. If an owner is unable to attend the Municipal Office, a representative may pick up the kit(s) on their behalf. Owners are responsible to forward the annual allotment of garbage bag tags to their tenants, along with the collection schedule and information found in each kit. Tenants should contact the property owner(s) to obtain the garbage bag tags, if they have not yet been provided to them.

Reminder: All bags must be tagged with a Municipal Garbage Bag Tag, or they will not be collected.

If you SELL your property, the bag tags and blue box stay with the property for the new owner. Do not take them to your new property, even within Bayham. If you purchased a property and these items were not left, or if you have recently received occupancy for a newly built home, please visit the Municipal Office to obtain your bag tags and blue box.
