Commercial/Business
Recycling collection in Simcoe County is now managed by Circular Materials, a not-for-profit organization appointed by producers under Ontario’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework.
The County of Simcoe’s waste collection services are primarily intended for residential units. However, this service is extended to commercial properties (not units) and serviced proportional to that of a single-family home. As such, these properties are limited to:
One additional organics cart may be ordered per property, provision is subject to County discretion and a $50 per cart administration fee will apply. Commercial locations must reasonably participate in the organics programs in order for their garbage to be collected.
Commercial properties that produce frequent overflow materials, fail to remain within the limits above, dispose of recyclable materials in the garbage or organics, or fail to properly prepare material may result in suspended collection services where alternative disposal may be required through private collection or delivery of materials to a Waste Drop-off facility at the owner’s expense (tipping fees may apply).
