Garbage and Recycling

The Township of Alfred and Plantagenet ensures waste management within its territory. The Municipality offers garbage and recyclables pick-up to reduce the effect of waste on its citizen’s health, the environment or the aesthetics of our region. In addition, special waste collection programs are available at specific times of the year, and the landfill site is accessible to residents.

Notice To Residents
