The City of Sault Ste. Marie has announced that regular garbage and recycling collection will not take place on Easter Monday, April 6, 2026, due to the statutory holiday.
Because of this one-day pause, collection for the remainder of the week will shift one day later than usual. Residents who normally have their bins picked up on Monday can expect service on Tuesday, while the rest of the week follows suit: Tuesday’s collection moves to Wednesday, Wednesday to Thursday, Thursday to Friday, and Friday to Saturday.
The municipal landfill located at 402 Fifth Line East will also be closed on the holiday. The site will resume its regular Saturday operations beginning April 18.
Additionally, the Household Hazardous Waste Depot at the landfill remains closed for the season. It is expected to reopen to the public on April 21, with operating hours from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday. Waste collection services in the city are provided by GFL Environmental.
