User Pay Garbage System

The Township of Mapleton's garbage services are managed by Wellington County Solid Waste Services. Curbside collection of user pay garbage bags is on a bi-weekly basis. For the current rural collection schedule, map and garbage fact sheets please visit Wellington County's Solid Waste Services website.

The County has a full user pay system for garbage. There is a fee for every bag of garbage picked up at curbside or dropped off at a waste facility. This system encourages people to practice the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) and gives them some control over how much they want to spend on their garbage each week. Any item which does not fit within a user pay garbage bag will not be collected. Larger items may be taken to any County waste facility (fees apply). User-pay garbage bag distributors in the Township of Mapleton include:

An up-to-date list of bag distributors can also be found at Wellington County Garbage and Recycling
