Gutter & yard work in Ajax, Ontario
The houses Ajax built in the 2000s are reaching the age for first water heaters and shingles — get roof and water-heater quotes in late summer or early fall, before the weather turns. Durham Region collects Ajax’s yard waste from April to early December, in paper yard bags or labelled open-top containers of 20 kg (44 lb) or less. Grass clippings and plastic bags are not taken. Ajax’s Tree Protection By-law (137-2006) needs a permit to damage or remove trees in parks, Greenbelt land and Environmental Protection land.

Ajax residents must clear the sidewalk in front of the house within 24 hours of a snowfall, and fines go on the tax bill. The Town’s Senior Snow Removal Program, for residents 65 and over or with a disability, plows the windrow, driveway, apron, front walkway and sidewalk once more than 5 cm has fallen.
