Gutter & yard work in Oakville, Ontario
Old Oakville, Bronte and Clearview sit under big mature trees — book a gutter clean once most leaves are down, usually late November or early December, after the Town’s loose-leaf collection has been through your zone. Halton Region collects Oakville’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. Oakville needs a permit to remove any tree on private property that is 15 cm or more in diameter at breast height. The fee is $65 for a first tree of 15–24 cm and $425 for each additional or larger tree; dead and high-risk trees, ash and buckthorn still need a permit but no fee. Healthy trees removed must be replaced — one new tree for every 10 cm of diameter.
