District pleased with uptake on new clear bag program

Friday, 25 April 2025 09:02

Over 75% of households are participating

The District says that Muskoka's new Clear Bag Program is already showing big results, just one month in.

District officials say over 75 percent of curbside households are now using clear bags, helping cut garbage by 39 percent and boosting green bin organics by 51 percent.

The District calls the shift a major win for sustainability and landfill life, with nearly 1,000 new green bin requests since the start of the year.

Residents can learn more or request a bin at muskokasolidwaste.ca.
