The Town would like to reemphasize the importance of not leaving
anything within a feet range from the side of the road (1.5 metres) or
in the municipal right of way which could interfere with snow clearing
operations. Not only can it be damaged by the snow clearing crew but it
can also compromise their safety and that of motorists. It is strongly
recommended to deposit your garbage and recycling bin in your private
entrance 5 feet from the road (no more than 7 feet for your recycling
bin because of the mechanical harm) and to not deposit anything
on snow piles.
During storms, visibility is poor for snow clearing operators. Your
garbage bin can barely been seen by the operator sitting in his cabin.
He also has to take into account cars driving in the opposite direction
and stay focused on the road in difficult road conditions. He cannot
stop for every bin that has fallen and cannot always go around them
because of oncoming traffic! So respect the minimum clearance required!
Planning any landscaping or installation ahead of time and knowing your
municipal by-laws are essential to avoid expensive surprises during
these operations.
