What is the cost if my carts are lost, broken, or stolen?

The cost for each 120 litre cart is $65. A 240 litre cart is $108.35 plus GST. This cost is the responsibility of the home owner if the cart is lost, stolen or damaged through no fault of the City or its contractors. The new carts can be purchased at City Hall during business hours.
