The Municipality of South Dundas has a multi-faceted waste management program. It provides curb side, residential garbage pick-up. Businesses are permitted to take advantage of this pick-up but must comply with the Municipality’s garbage policies (below).

Please note: Each household may place a maximum of two garbage bags per week at curb side. Any extra will not be taken during curbside pick-up.

Any additional garbage bags must be in an authorized garbage bag purchased from various locations in the Municipality. The price of additional garbage bags is $2.00 per bag.
