Garbage – transfer station
The Glenwood / Hill Spring Garbage Transfer Station is operated by Cardston County under the Chief Mountain Regional Solid Waste Services Commission. Plastics are no longer accepted for recycling.
Bottles & cans
Put refundable cans and plastic bottles in the blue recycling dumpster. The refunds help pay for our summer celebrations – thank you!
Electronics
Old computers, laptops, tablets, printers, monitors, keyboards, mice, speakers, cables and televisions can go in the Electronics Collection Site.
Glass, paper & cardboard
Glass, paper and cardboard recycling can be taken to the Pincher Creek recycling facility.
Paint, oil & other toxic waste
Toxic waste can’t go in the recycling bins, the transfer station or the landfill. That includes paint and spray paint, oil, antifreeze and anything containing mercury. Take it to the Waste & Recycling Centre at the Lethbridge Regional Landfill.
RV wastewater dump station
Empty RV holding tanks and fill up with drinking water. The dump station is a free service from the Village – donations help keep it that way.
What not to flush
Glenwood’s sewage is treated in lagoons southeast of the village and released into the Glen Lateral twice a year, after the Village tests it to make sure it meets Alberta Environment requirements.
Please keep sanitary products, heavy paper towels, wipes and condoms out of the sewer – they don’t break down in the lagoon.
