Some copies of the waste kit provided with each cart had an incorrect version of the week1/week2 map for a section of Simcoe. The affected area received the correct version of the kit booklet. The error is noted below.  

Incorrect version of the map: 

Incorrect map
Incorrect: Collection in this area is NOT on Monday

Correct version of the map:

Properties with a new collection day

When the new waste program starts on Monday, September 28, 2026:

  • Waterford properties that currently have Friday collection will move to Monday collection days (Waterford residents with Thursday collection day will not change)
  • Silver Lake area in Port Dover will move to Wednesday collection days (previously Tuesday)
  • A few other properties are also changing days to make collection more efficient

We've mailed letters about these changes to affected property owners. Collection day will not change for all other areas. 

NOTE: Some areas of Waterford may not have received their letter due to a Canada Post PO box issue.
