Ladysmith’s Spring Clean Up dates set for 2022

The Town of Ladysmith is excited to announce that our annual Spring Clean Up is planned for April 19-25, 2022.

The popular bulk item door-to-door pickup service assists residents with getting rid of common household bulk items such as furniture, mattresses, children’s toys and barbecues.

Last year, the Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD) informed the Town that solid waste from our Spring Clean Up program contained a mix of materials that would need to be sorted to maximize recycling and diversion from the landfill.

The Town’s contractor Waste Connections will  haul and dispose of items at the GFL Yard in 2022 as we explore alternative long-term solutions.

As a sustainability leader, the Town is committed to collaborating with residents on opportunities minimizing the impact Spring Clean Up has on our environment

The Town plans to engage with residents in the coming months on the value of the program and gauge enthusiasm for potential future requirements to sort bulk items at curbside - taking advantage of recycling and diversion initiatives provided by the CVRD.
