Pointe-Claire Garbage Collection Schedule 2026: Find Your Sector and Exact Pickup Day
Start with your address—not a guessed weekday. Pointe-Claire uses Sector A and Sector B calendars. Organics are normally Monday, recycling is Thursday, and household garbage changes by sector and season. The buttons below take you directly to the official address tool, both calendar PDFs and missed-pickup help.
Quick Answer: What Day Is Garbage Collection in Pointe-Claire?
There is no single garbage day for every Pointe-Claire address. From September through May, household waste is collected every two weeks, alternating between Sector A and Sector B. From June 2 through August 26, 2026, it is weekly: Tuesday in Sector A and Wednesday in Sector B.
Organic materials
Monday, 7 a.m.–6 p.m. Use only the City green wheeled bin.
Recycling
Thursday, 7 a.m.–6 p.m. Use only the City blue wheeled bin.
Household waste
Every two weeks. Sector A and Sector B use different Tuesday dates.
Summer garbage
Sector A Tuesday.
Sector B Wednesday.
Open the official address tool, record Sector A or Sector B, then open the matching PDF calendar. Do not calculate a biweekly date from an old 2025 calendar or from a neighbour in another sector.

How to Put Out Garbage, Recycling or Organics Correctly
Blue is recycling. Green is organics. Household waste uses your own compliant grey or black container.
Place the wheels and handle toward your residence so the collection arm can access the bin correctly.
Leave at least 30 cm around bins, 45 cm for larger containers and about 60 cm from cars, hydrants or other obstacles where possible.
Keep material inside, remove snow from the lid and do not place bags or objects on top.
After 6 p.m. or before 7 a.m.
- Set out after 6 p.m. the evening before.
- Or place it out before 7 a.m. on collection day.
- Keep it on your property at the road edge.
- Do not place it in the street or on the sidewalk.
- Bring it back by 10 p.m. after collection.
Why a correctly dated bin may be missed
- Wrong bin colour or collection stream.
- American-grip wheeled garbage bin.
- Open lid or material sticking out.
- Overweight container.
- Parked car, snowbank or hydrant blocking access.
- Prohibited material in the load.
Household-Waste Bin and Weight Limits
One truck handles compatible rolling bins; another handles small bins, bags and upholstered items. If one household-waste truck passes and your material remains, wait until the following morning before reporting it. This two-truck rule applies only to household waste.

What to Do When Pointe-Claire Garbage Pick Up Is Missed
Confirm the date and sector
Open the address result and matching PDF. Make sure you did not use the other sector’s household-waste Tuesday.
Recheck my address →Check time, placement and access
Was it out before 7 a.m.? Were the handle and wheels facing home? Was the bin clear of cars, hydrants, snow and other containers?
Review official placement instructions →Check the container and material
Look for an open lid, excess weight, prohibited item, wrong bin colour, contamination or an item that needs a special collection.
Check the item’s correct route →Apply the correct waiting rule
Household waste: if one truck passed, wait until the following morning because a second truck may arrive. Other ordinary streams: report the same day if all rules were followed.
Use the correct special-item deadline
For an uncollected bulky item, mattress or box spring, contact the City before 11 a.m. the following day.
Contact Public Works and leave the material accessible
Have your address, sector, scheduled date, material, container type and any rejection notice ready.
