Collection days are changing in April

Starting April 22, many Calgary households will see blue, black or green cart pick-up days moving to improve routes. These updates also align with the return of city-wide weekly green cart collection. The new collection schedules will be available on calgary.ca/cartschedule by April 8. Check your schedule to:

  • Find out whether your blue, black or green cart pick-day is changing.
