Reminder: Residential Waste Collection - New Contractor

As of October 1, 2026, Eastern 2.0 will be collecting residential waste (clear bags and compost) for the Town of Antigonish. Look for the blue trucks!

Our guy Jeff Wadden took a little time out of his busy schedule to rescue a seagull while he was unloading today at the Pictou Country solid waste facility. He took this fella over to the scale house and he’s off to Hope for Wildlife for a little rehab and physio. Well done Jeff.
