If you do not have a back alley, please put the yard waste near the curb at the front of your property for pick up. Please do not bag the yard waste. Compostable yard waste piles with plastic bags will not be picked up.

Residents are welcome to take compostable yard waste to the Town of Ponoka Waste Transfer Station free of charge.

Materials that will be picked up are: compostable yard waste and tree branches no longer than five feet.

Materials that will not be picked up are: garbage/household waste, plastic, rocks, construction material, wood, and pet excrement.
