Blue bin:
Beverage containers

Since 1998, the Town of Nipawin has been collecting compost material from every household within the town limits. It is estimated that during the summer months compost materials account for up to 50% of all residential waste collected. The objective of composting is to divert this material from the landfill, while converting it into a useful finished product for horticultural or agricultural use. From an environmental perspective, composting saves valuable landfill space while adding beneficial humus and nutrients to the soil.
Compost collection period begins in May and concludes in October, see schedule for more details.
Acceptable compost items should be placed in GREEN compost carts, garbage cans, or paper compost bags and placed within six feet of your front curb by 8:00 a.m. on Wednesdays. For residents that are situated on a corner lot, compost items should be placed on the curb which is opposite to your back alley. Please do not place compost in your MTN Black or Blue Collection Carts. NO PLASTIC BAGS OF ANY KIND.
If you have any questions please call the Town Office at 862-9866.
