A shredding service is offered for amounts of branches equivalent to the content of a green bin and remains available every Thursday throughout the period. For larger amounts, a special collection is required (either through Public Works or a private collection service). Information: 514-734-4123.

Swimming Pool Drainage

By-law No. 1380 prohibits pouring a swimming pool’s wastewater onto the street. Drainage of a swimming pool must be done by using a pump with a hose long enough to bring the wastewater to a manhole. For safety purposes, a cover must be placed over the manhole and a sign must indicate danger to motorists and pedestrians.
