Organics collection gets underway in Invermere

A new collection schedule is in place in Invermere as the district’s move to curbside organics collection is complete.

Food waste, pizza boxes, kitty litter, wooden cutlery and other items can now be placed in curbside containers.

“We have an organics site in Invermere, near our lagoons. To go along with that, we are going to go along with curbside collection,” said Mayor Al Miller.

Organics, recycling and garbage collection are weekly for now but more changes will come later this year.

Garbage and recycling will move to by-weekly in September, but organics will stay at once a week.

Full collection schedules can be found here.
