WASTE & RECYCLING COLLECTION 2016 CALENDAR TOWN OF NEWMARKET 395 MULOCK DRIVE, P.O. BOX 328, STN MAIN, NEWMARKET, ON L3Y 4X7 WWW.NEWMARKET.CA | 905-895-5193 | [email protected] Newmarket 2016.indd 1 2015-11-19 10:11 AM 2016 Waste and Recycling Calendar Message from the Mayor On behalf of Council and staff, I am pleased to present the 2016 Waste and Recycling Calendar. Thank you for making environmentally conscious choices to help keep our waste diversion rates high and our Town green. TONY VAN BYNEN I would like to take this opportunity to remind residents to keep plastic bags out of the blue bin and use compostable bags in the green bin. To dispose of plastic bags, please participate in York Region’s Plastic Bag Take Back Program. This initiative is run in partnership with local retailers and the Canadian Plastics Industry Association. Residents who wish to participate are asked to turn their plastic bags inside out, place them in a bag and bring it to a participating local retailer. For more information and for a list of retailers, please visit www.newmarket.ca To better serve our community, residents can now visit the Customer Service kiosks at the Magna Centre (800 Mulock Drive) or the Ray Twinney Recreation Complex (100 Eagle Street West) for waste and recycling inquiries and bin purchases seven days a week. Additionally, you may visit us at the Municipal Offices (395 Mulock Drive) from Monday to Friday during regular business hours or call 905-895-5193. Newmarket 2016.indd 2 Don’t forget to download Newmarket’s free ‘my-waste’™ app for your mobile phone or tablet from your Android or Apple App Store. The ‘my-waste’™ app provides garbage, recycling and special waste collection details, as well as the ‘report a problem’ feature for non-emergency municipal issues such as reporting graffiti, missed collections, potholes and more. You can also access the new website version of the ‘my-waste’™ app at www.newmarket.ca/ wasteandrecycling. Again this year, we are pleased to offer a pull-out calendar so you can view all important collection dates, events and reminders for the year ahead at a glance. If you have any questions about the Town’s waste and recycling initiatives, please contact our Customer Service department at 905-895-5193 or email [email protected] Tony Van Bynen, Mayor 2015-11-19 10:11 AM Curbside Collection Reminders Place garbage, green bins, blue bins and yard waste at the curb by 7 a.m. on your scheduled day, but not earlier than 5 p.m. the night before.

While EAB poses no health risks to humans or pets, ash trees of all species and sizes (with the exception of Mountain Ash) are susceptible to the attack. Here are some frequently asked questions to help residents identify and monitor EAB and treat trees that may be infested on private property. EAB BEETLE S-SHAPED NOTCHES D-SHAPED EXIT HOLES WHAT DOES EAB LOOK LIKE? EAB beetles are metallic green in colour, have narrow bodies and are approximately the size of a penny. WHAT ARE SIGNS OF INFECTION? Early signs include holes in leaves, D-shaped exit holes and S-shaped notches under the bark. Mild defoliation is also an indication of early infestation in ash trees. HOW DOES EAB SPREAD? EAB spreads through the movement of infected ash wood, such as firewood, logs, mulch and lumber. To help slow and prevent the spread of EAB, residents should refrain from moving any type of wood. WHAT SHOULD I DO IF AN ASH TREE IS INFECTED ON MY PRIVATE PROPERTY? Private property owners are responsible for the tree on their property, therefore residents are encouraged to consult with a professional arborist if they suspect a tree has EAB. Arborists should be certified with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or registered with the American Society of Consulting Arborists (ASCA). Arborists can be found in the Yellow Pages and other business directories. For more information about EAB, visit the Town’s website at www.newmarket.ca/eab or call 905-895-5193 Newmarket 2016.indd 14 2015-11-19 10:12 AM Have a question? For missed waste and recycling collection information, please call Consult the back cover. Green for Life (GFL) at 1-866-421-5625 or visit gflenv.com/alert March 2016 SUNDAY MONDAY Remove large items from your household such as appliances and metal items by purchasing a large item sticker ($12) and scheduling a pick up date with Green for Life (GFL).

Grasscycling your grass clippings – Grasscycling is when grass clippings are left on the lawn so that nature can return the nutrients stored in the clippings back to the soil as they decompose. As clippings break down, they release moisture and nutrients into the soil. You can save as much as a third of your lawn mowing time by removing your grass catcher and letting grass stay on the lawn.
