    Mayor Jim Parsons says staff will also be collecting from curbsides, and residents will need to make an appointment using an online form or by calling the city’s customer service team at 637-1666.

    Corner Brook’s Spring Cleanup will be a little different this year. Residents will have two options for disposing of waste during the month of May. Option one is to bring bulk garbage to the Wild Cove Landfill site, free of charge. Proof of residency within City limits will be required. 

    Mayor Jim Parsons says staff will also be collecting from curbsides, and residents will need to make an appointment using an online form or by calling the city’s customer service team at 637-1666. He says the city had to streamline the pick up process due to increasing costs, which have doubled. 

    The issue was discussed at last night’s public meeting. Aaron O’Brien is the city’s director of engineering, development and operational services. He says they’re working on the final details and more information will be available as the city rolls out the new pick up schedule.
