City shifting garbage collection to Tuesday through Saturday during RDFFG job action

The City of Prince George is adjusting its residential garbage collection schedule to ensure services continue during ongoing strike action by Regional District staff.

The Foothills Boulevard Regional Landfill is now operating under essential service hours.

Starting Saturday, garbage collection will follow this schedule:

  • Yellow zone – Tuesdays
  • Red zone – Wednesdays
  • Green Zone – Thursdays
  • Orange Zone – Fridays
  • Blue Zone – Saturdays

The Foothills landfill remains open to the public, and updates will be provided as new information becomes available.
