Halton Region
Gutter & yard work in Burlington, Ontario
Roseland, Shoreacres and Aldershot sit under big old trees — book a gutter clean once most leaves are down, usually late November, after the City’s loose-leaf collection has been through your zone. Halton Region collects Burlington’s yard waste from the first week of April to the second week of December on your garbage day, in paper yard waste bags or open, labelled rigid containers — never plastic bags. Each bag or container can hold up to 125 L and weigh no more than 50 lb, and brush must be tied in bundles no larger than 2 m by 1 m with branches under 7.5 cm across. Inside Burlington’s urban area, removing or injuring a private tree 20 cm (8 in) or more in diameter at 1.37 m needs a City permit; public trees of any size always do. Dead, terminally ill or high-risk trees confirmed by a qualified professional still need a permit, but the fees and replacement compensation are waived. Doyo books yard and outdoor work across Burlington: describe the job, see the full price before you book, and pay only when it is done.

Burlington’s windrow clearing program is a paid sign-up service: $150 plus tax for the season, half price for seniors 65 and over, residents with a disability and those on GIS or ODSP. Enrolled driveways are cleared after snowfalls of 7.5 cm or more, within 32 hours after the snow stops and 8 hours after residential roads are plowed.
