The Town of Churchill, Manitoba, is planning a community cleanup and curb-side giveaway event for the fall of 2026. This annual program gives residents a way to manage large waste items and share household goods with their neighbours to reduce the amount of trash sent to the local landfill.
During the giveaway weekend, residents can place items they no longer want at the curb for others to pick up and reuse. The town encourages people to put out any household goods that might be useful to someone else, helping to clear out clutter while supporting the community.
The week after the giveaway, the town shifts its focus to cleaning up larger, bulky waste. For these items to be picked up by municipal crews, residents must mark them with official green flagging tape, which is available at the Town Administration Office.
This cleanup effort is part of how the town keeps streets clean to help prevent attracting polar bears into residential areas. Residents can find more information about how the town handles garbage through its Waste Management services.
