Mayor Matt Wren explains further
Between now and September 22, the city of Brockville continues to distribute green bins to residents for the new program that begins October 6.
Eligible households with six units or fewer will receive a green bin, a smaller container for kitchen scraps, and information on how the new collection program works.
Brockville Mayor Matt Wren says this is happening because it's government mandated.
Wren adds that this year, the producers of the recyclable materials are now responsible for the cost of picking those up, which allows the city to fund this program.
