Moncton Garbage Schedule Helper: Pickup Day, Eco360 Calendar, Green Bags, Blue Bags and Clear Bags
This guide is built for the real Moncton curbside moment: you need your next pickup date, the right bag colour, the right contact for a missed pickup, and the right plan for bulk waste, snowbanks, hazardous waste or recycling questions.
Quick Answer: How to Check the Moncton Garbage Schedule
Use Eco360’s Residential Services calendar and type your Moncton home address into the Calendar area. Moncton follows a three-bag system: green organics bags are collected every week, while blue recycling bags and clear garbage bags alternate every second week.
Open Eco360 calendar
Scroll to the Calendar area, enter your address, then use the result as your final pickup-day answer.
Check the bag colour
Do not rely only on the weekday. One week is green + clear, and the next week is green + blue.
Use the right contact
City questions, missed waste pickup, recycling questions and bulk pickup can use different official paths.
If your neighbour says “pickup is Wednesday,” that is only half the answer. You still need to know whether it is green + clear or green + blue week.

What Moncton Residents Usually Need Today
Most visitors need one practical answer before collection morning, after a missed bag, during snow, or before moving a large item outside.
I need my pickup day
Open Eco360, enter your address, and confirm the next date before putting bags out.
Green + blue or green + clear?
Green bags are weekly. Blue recycling and clear garbage alternate every second week.
My waste was missed
Check sorting, snow placement, packaging and collection status first. Then report through the City path.
I have furniture or appliances
Use Moncton’s bulk waste program. It is separate from the regular three-bag schedule.
Moncton Pickup Day Calendar: How to Use Eco360 Without Guessing
Moncton’s schedule is address-based. A home near Mountain Road, Elmwood Drive, Mapleton, Lewisville, Sunny Brae or downtown can still need the official Eco360 lookup because the weekday and bag colour are not safe to copy from memory.
Open Residential Services
Eco360’s Residential Services page has the sorting guide, sorting tool, app links and 2026 collection calendar area.
Type your home address
Use your exact civic address. This is better than checking a general zone or copying bags from a nearby street.
Confirm the bag pair
Look for green + clear or green + blue. The bag pair matters as much as the date.
This map is local context only. It is not a live pickup-zone map. For your actual Moncton garbage schedule, use Eco360’s address calendar or the City of Moncton official links.
Moncton Green + Blue or Green + Clear Week Tool
This helper is not an official schedule. Use it only after you already know one confirmed Moncton pickup date from Eco360, then compare the result with the live Eco360 calendar.
Check the next alternating bag weeks
Enter one known official pickup date and the non-green bag collected that week. Green bags are weekly, so this tool focuses on the alternating blue/clear pattern.
Moncton Three-Bag System: Green, Blue and Clear Bags
The easiest way to avoid a rejected bag is to think by stream, not just by pickup day. Green is the weekly habit. Blue and clear take turns.
Organics every week
- Use for food scraps and accepted organic material.
- Eco360 lists organics as collected every week.
- Use the sorting tool when you are unsure about an item.
- Closed containers can help protect green bags from animals and weather.
Recycling every second week
- Blue bags alternate with clear garbage bags.
- Use for accepted recyclable containers, paper, cardboard, cartons and approved items.
- Keep materials clean, dry and ready for recycling.
- Follow Circular Materials / Miller Waste guidance for recycling questions.
Garbage every second week
- Clear garbage bags alternate with blue recycling bags.
- Use for non-recyclable, non-organic household garbage.
- Do not hide hazardous waste, batteries, paint or propane in clear bags.
- Use Eco360 or Mobile Eco-Depot for depot-only items.
Green every week. Blue and clear alternate. If you remember that and then check Eco360, most Moncton collection confusion disappears.
Moncton Set-Out Tips: Snowbanks, Containers, Sorting and Missed Bags
A bag can be missed even on the right day if it is not sorted, not packaged correctly, placed on snow or ice, or left where crews cannot reach it safely.
Collection-ready setup
- Confirm your pickup date in Eco360.
- Confirm green + blue or green + clear.
- Use the correct bag colour for the stream.
- Keep waste off snowbanks and ice.
- Keep the collection area cleared after snow.
- Put away uncollected waste or containers by 7 p.m.
Common collection problems
- Putting blue bags out on a clear-bag week.
- Putting clear bags out on a blue-bag week.
- Placing waste on top of ice or a snowbank.
- Using large storage containers at the curb.
- Leaving hazardous waste in any curbside bag.
- Leaving bulk waste without booking the bulk program.
Moncton says waste may be placed in containers, but containers for curbside collection cannot be taller than 30 inches. Large storage containers can be used during the week, but not at the curb for collection.

Call or submit the form
Residents can call 506-383-7020 before Friday at 5 p.m. before the bulk collection day, or fill out the form by the Sunday before neighbourhood collection.
Five items per pickup
The City lists a five-item limit for each bulk pickup. Black garbage bags are not accepted as bulk waste.

Eco360 Depot, Mobile Eco-Depot and Household Hazardous Waste
If an item is hazardous, electronic, bulky, construction-related, propane-related, paint-related or otherwise confusing, do not place it in a curbside bag until you confirm the correct route.

The Mobile Eco-Depot visits regions once a month, in different communities each week, for two-day events from noon to 8 p.m.
Open Mobile Eco-DepotNo curbside collection

Moncton Recycling Questions: Blue Bags, Oops Stickers and Flexible Plastics
Recycling questions are not only local anymore. For Dieppe, Moncton and Riverview, Circular Materials lists Miller Waste for missed recycling collections and recycling questions.
Clean, dry and ready
Keep recyclable containers empty and quickly rinsed. Flatten and bundle cardboard where guidance says to save space.
Use drop-off for problem items
Circular Materials says glass, white foam packaging and flexible plastics do not go in curbside recycling and should go to participating redemption/drop-off locations.
Batteries do not belong
Batteries and other hazardous materials should be safely recycled at designated drop-off locations, not placed in recycling bags.
Apartments, Condos, Mini-Home Parks and New Moncton Residents
Not every property follows the same practical workflow. If you live in an apartment, condo, mini-home park, rental building or commercial/mixed-use property, ask the property manager how curbside sorting and bulky items are handled.
Set up Eco360 first
Before your first pickup, bookmark Eco360 or install the app, check the address calendar, and learn the green/blue/clear bag rhythm.
Ask before placing items out
Large buildings may have private instructions, shared waste rooms or separate bulk waste arrangements.
No random curb piles
Furniture, electronics, paint, propane, renovation waste and loose piles should be handled through bulk waste, Eco360, Mobile Eco-Depot or property management.
