(CANCELLED) June 7, 2020 Chaparral and Walden Community Cleanup
|
Each year the City of Calgary Waste & Recycling Services and Community Standards partner up with community associations to help residents get rid of unwanted household items and property waste. This event saves residents a trip to the landfill for items that do not fit in their waste and recycling carts or for residents that do not have cart service, by providing three packer trucks with crews (two for waste and one for organic materials). This service is free of charge to all Calgarians.
*Due to COVID-19, this event has been cancelled |
Please let us know if there are other community events we should be aware of!
