* **Place** all materials in a visible location at the bottom right side of your driveway or laneway within 1 metre (3 feet) of the curb or roadside
* **Avoid** placing materials in ditches, on snow piles, or on the travelled part of the road or sidewalk
* **Ensure** that any mailboxes are not being blocked
* **Check** that each garbage bag and green bin does not weigh more than 18 kg (40 lbs). Anything over this limit **will not be collected**.
* For additional information on setting out your recycling cart see the Circular Materials **'Tips and Tricks'** resource.
