🌟 Hey, neighbours! Phil D Bin here with another Safety Minute — and today, I’ve got a quick but important tip for winter collection days!Place Your Bins in Front of Snow Banks! When the snow starts piling up, it can make things tricky for us collectors. Placing your bins in front of snow banks (while keeping them off roadways and sidewalks) is not only a safe move — it’s a smart one! Why is it safer?1️⃣ No Risk of Damage: Bins stuck behind snow piles are more likely to get damaged when we try to reach them. We don’t want your bins or our equipment getting damaged!2️⃣ Less Likely to Tip Over: When bins are placed in front of snow banks, they’re less likely to tip over when we lift them. If they’re wedged behind snow, we risk knocking them over, spilling trash, or causing a mess!3️⃣ Better Visibility: Snow can make it harder to see bins, and if they’re hidden behind a snow bank, we might miss them altogether. Keeping your bins clear and accessible ensures nothing gets left behind.Remember, a little extra effort in placing your bin correctly can go a long way in keeping things smooth and safe this winter! 🌨️Stay safe out there, folks! 🧤 #SafetyMinute #PhilDBin #BluewaterRecyclingAssociation ...

Most Unwanted: February Edition 🚫🤚Item: Furnace Filters 🗑️Furnace filters are essential for keeping your home air clean, but once they’ve done their job, they can’t just go into the regular recycling bin. Here’s why:🔹Not recyclable: Most furnace filters, especially the disposable ones, are made of mixed materials like fiberglass, paper, and metal, which are difficult to separate for recycling. 🔹Improper disposal: If you toss them in the recycling bin, they can contaminate materials that would otherwise be recycled. What you should do… Dispose of them properly by:✅Check with your local municipality for any special drop-off locations for used filters.✅Some manufacturers offer take-back programs for used filters, so always ask!✅If you’re replacing your filter, buy one made from recyclable materials.Let’s all do our part to keep things clean and green! Keep those furnace filters out of the wrong bins and into the right hands! ♻️#MostUnwanted #FurnaceFilters #BluewaterRecyclingAssociation ... See MoreSee Less
