9 Electronic Waste Drop-Off Electronic Waste (E-Waste) needs special care and will not be collected at the curb. Computers & Accessories, Televisions, A/V Equipment!!! Unwanted electronics should never end up in landfills or in your garbage bag. Most of the parts steel, glass, copper, aluminum, plastics and precious metals, can be recovered and made into new products. Also, electronic equipment like computers, printers, and televisions can be reused, further cutting down on waste. Environmental Handling Fees (EHF) are charged on the sale and distribution of new electronics regulated in Ontario. Paid at the time of purchase, the fee reflects the program cost to collect, transport and responsibly recycle each electronic at the end of its useful life. When you purchase electronics, these fees cover the cost for making sure the electronics that no longer work or are out-of-use don t just end up in a landfill, but are safely and responsibly managed for both the valuable components they contain, as well as the substances of concern. Computer Equipment: Desktop & Laptops Computer Peripherals Printing Devices Wires and Cables RAM & Hard Drives Televisions: Standard Televisions LCD Screens Plasma Screens Projection Televisions A/V Equipment: Telephones Cellular Phones PDAs and Pagers Audio / Video Players Cameras Speakers / Amplifiers Radios / Tuners Bracebridge Transfer Stn.

curb. If animals find your garbage and create litter before it is collected, it is the responsibility of the resident to clean up the mess.

13 Waste Management in Georgian Bay Wildlife in Muskoka is abundant. Animals are waiting for you to place your waste at the curb for them to enjoy. To discourage bears, racoons, birds and other pests from turning your waste into their meal, please follow these steps: When placing material for collection, ensure it is properly contained at the curb. If animals find your garbage and create litter before it is collected, it is the responsibility of the resident to clean up the mess. Collection drivers cannot collect loose garbage and cannot clean up any mess left from animals. Using a roadside animal resistant bin with a lid that closes securely will assist in preventing this from occurring. If you re not home on collection day, deliver your material to the nearest Depot or Transfer Station for proper, safe disposal. For your convenience, Muskoka offers extended hours on Sundays or holiday Mondays. (See page 1) Please do not place large items at the curb, they cannot be collected. Only household bagged garbage, sorted recycling and green bins are collected at the curb. Residential large items such as furniture, mattresses, chairs, etc. can be delivered to the Baxter Transfer Station or Tower Road Transfer Station at no charge with proof of Georgian Bay Township residency. These items cannot be colleceted at the curb. If you have questions, please contact us. Please call Muskoka Public Works at or Muskoka s curbside collection contractor - Progressive Waste Solutions

Residents are responsible for clean-up of messes and litter on their property. CURBSIDE GARBAGE LIMITS! Remember, Residents in the Green Bin area: 2 bags of garbage weekly (4 during the bi-weekly schedule) Residents in the Rural Area: 3 bags of garbage weekly (6 during the bi-weekly schedule) if you will not be home on collection day, residents may bring 3 bags of household garbage to any Depot, Landfill or Transfer Station in Muskoka.

If using a roadside animal resistant bin for your garbage, please ensure it is positioned no more than 5 meters from the travelled roadway, beside your driveway. INCLIMATE WEATHER In the event of hazardous road conditions due to weather in the winter months, cancelling collection may be necessary in the interest of safety.
