RECYCLING CART EXCHANGE REQUEST FORM

This request form is intended for residents of Essex-Windsor who are requesting an exchange of their 360-litre recycling cart for a smaller 240-litre size cart.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: 

Please ensure to review the information below before you submit a request form for a recycling cart exchange. 

• Bi-weekly Collection Schedule: Recycling collection in Essex-Windsor region will remain every other week. Currently, many residents use two recycling boxes on a bi-weekly collection cycle (which totals 320-litres of recycling capacity every two weeks). The new 360-litre recycling cart was chosen to support current and future volume. 

• Expanded List of Accepted Materials: With advancements in the recycling system, residents will now be able to recycle more materials such as hot and cold beverage cups, black plastic containers, frozen juice cans, ice cream tubs, deodorant and toothpaste tubes. This expanded list of materials will increase the volume of recyclable materials generated and collected from households.

• All Materials Must be Inside the Cart for Collection: All materials must be placed inside the recycling cart, with the lid fully closed to be ready for collection pick up. Please note material placed outside the recycling cart will not be collected.

• Only one cart exchange will be permitted per address: It is important to note, only one cart exchange will be permitted per address. In addition, requests for a second additional cart will not be permitted for households that have exchanged for a smaller 240-litre size cart.

• Based on the above considerations, we recommended that residents use the issued 360-litre recycling cart for at least three bi-weekly collection cycles (i.e., over a period of six weeks) to understand their recycling needs before submitting a request to exchange for a smaller cart.

• See the image below for information on 360-litre recycling cart and 240-litre recycling cart floor space dimensions.

If, after considering above, you would like to proceed with an exchange for a smaller 240-litre cart, please click NEXT.
