2023 Online Survey
The survey will close at 11:59 pm on Friday, May 19.
Thank you for participating in this survey. Your participation will provide the Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD) with feedback on three options for three-stream (organics, recycling and garbage) curbside collection in all CVRD Electoral Areas.
The overall purpose of providing a three-stream curbside collection service equally across the region is to:
- Reduce the volume of material sent to the landfill by removing compostable waste (‘organics’) from the garbage.
- Ensure that all residents have easy access to organics diversion at their homes.
- Support local waste management opportunities and businesses e.g. re-use, recycle, and composting organizations.
A Fact Sheet on three-stream curbside collection service is available as a resource to provide you with additional project information and background.
In spring of 2022, the CVRD conducted Phase 1 of the three-stream curbside collection program engagement process and learned from many of you about your priorities and values related to the program. You can find the full report here and a two-page summary here. With this valuable feedback in hand, three-stream curbside collection options were developed and associated cost impacts were calculated.
