What is an Automated Cart Based System?
An Automated Cart Based System involves the use of a single Waste Collection Truck with mechanical arms that pick up and tip the contents of the Cart (Waste or Recycling) into the truck’s collection container for clean,
quick and easy waste collection service.

Recycling Information
Recycle Manitoba Recycling Guide
- All recyclable materials can be placed co-mingled in the value cart. When in doubt please check the number on the plastic material to see if it is recyclable. If there is no number it is not a recyclable material.
- At curbside all material listed above can be placed loosely in your blue cart. Please place newspapers in a plastic clear bag, or shopping bag left open in your blue box. Cardboard should be folded square, tied and placed inside your blue cart.
