CURBSIDE RECYCLING PROGRAM
Please watch for information inserts in your Aquatera Utility bill.
Since August 5, 2021, the Town of Wembley recycling program has changed. All residents have a blue recycling cart that "ALL" recyclables can be placed into.
Your collection day for mixed recyclables will be every Thursday of the month. Recycle carts are to be placed at the curb every Thursday for collection by 8:00 am. Please make sure they are placed one meter from any other objects, with lids closed and wheels facing curb. If cart is missed please call Prarie Disposal ASAP 780-539-5950. They will notify their driver. Trucks are equiped with GPS/camera.
Prairie Disposal will supply each residence with one blue cart labeled “Mixed Recyclables Only”. If blue cart is damaged by truck, please contact Prairie Disposal. (General wear & tear of cart will have a replacement cart fee)
