[CANUFNET] Cart Based Garbage Collection and Street Trees

[Wood, Crispin]

Hello Folks,

I am looking for some experience from other municipalities who have adopted a cart-based garbage collection system, specifically how this impacted your street trees (if it did at all?). From those municipalities that have experience, how did it go once initially adopted, was pruning required to gain clearance for trucks lifting bins to dump into the hoppers? were there significant conflicts in areas with older street trees, if you did encounter work required, how was it actioned?

Any experience appreciated.
