Starting March 13, 2026, residents in Mulhurst Bay and Curilane Beach in Wetaskiwin, Alberta, have a new day for their curbside waste collection. The County of Wetaskiwin has permanently moved the pickup schedule from Tuesdays to Fridays for these specific areas.

This change is effective immediately, and the municipal government confirmed that garbage trucks will no longer provide service on Tuesdays. Residents are encouraged to put their waste out on the new day to ensure their trash is collected without any interruption.

Local officials from the Public Works Department advise people living in these lakefront communities to adjust their household routines to match the Friday morning collection. This move is part of the regular management of local services to keep things running smoothly throughout the region.

To stay updated on any further service alerts, residents can check the official website or the County Facebook page. The local government also uses the Pipestone Flyer as a formal way to share important updates about service changes with the community.
