Service Disruptions

  • Winter Weather & Garbage Collection Notice - January 20, 2026
    Due to current winter weather and unsafe road conditions, Bruce Waste Disposal is attempting to collect garbage in built-up areas within the Municipality of Brockton.
    Unfortunately, backroads are not safe for travel at this time, and as a result, the Township of Brant and other similar rural areas will not be serviced today.
    Please note: Any garbage that is missed or not collected today will be eligible for an “Extra” pickup next week on your regular collection day.
    Bruce Waste Disposal appreciates your patience and understanding as crews prioritize safety during these winter conditions.
