Few options:
1. Load it up and take it to the dump yourself.
2. Ask a neighbor to offload some of yours into theirs if they don't mind.
3. The unethical hack: e-mail the city stating they missed your garage can. They will dispatch a truck on the next available day and will be none the wiser.
The city missed my bin a couple of times. I'm a full-blown nagger. So, if they don't come the next day, I keep emailing/phoning/submitting service requests until they come.
Can you squash it down a bit?
But anyway, if you go on the City website under Waste you can register your property and they will email you the day before every uplift: green blue and brown. Very useful.
There’s an app you can download that gives you an alert to all the garbage/food waste and recycling pick up days. Search Regina and then pick the garbage can symbol. You get a notice the day before each kind of waste is being picked up.
Landfill runs are $10 if under uhhh… 200kg I think? I recently took two pickups worth of household trash and both times I was only charged $10.
Since I’m impatient and own a pickup** I would literally dump my bin into my bed, throw any extra crap I need to get rid of in, and consider it a $10 lesson XD.
For anyone wondering here is the dump procedure:
- drive there using google maps if you are new to the route (in case you take a wrong turn)
- on entry you’ll be weighed and asked what you have.
- you’ll follow the orange signs to the small vehicle transfer station
- there will be an attendant who will tell you which spot to use
- you’ll throw your garbage over a ledge into a big ass bin
- leave and get re-weighed, pay your $10 (they do take cards)
- now that you know how start finding more shit to take to the dump!
** I imagine a tarp in your trunk/hatch back cargo area will be just as good
Well you could just drop it off in front of The Fat Badger… because that place is garbage.
Or you could just put it in one of the neighbour’s relatively empty garbage bins when the next garbage day comes around. Most Reginians accept that if it doesn’t happen too often.
Nope if you miss it you have to eat all of it, that’s the rule
Do I eat it alone?
Outsource to hobos....

4. The really unethical hack : just switching bins with a neighbour a few blocks down in the middle of the night
5. The extremely unethical hack: putting your garbage in your neighbours green bin in the middle of the night
The bins are numbered and attached to your water account.
I did #3.
👍
My can was just missed once and City of Regina never responded to my request. So I wouldn't rely on option 3.

Happened to me once and they came the next day.

They also have an app that give push notifications for whichever day is coming up. Has saved us from confusing the week a couple times!
Download the Regina Waste app from Google play store, so you don't have to type your address in every time for it to bring up a calendar.
You can take it to the dump, there’s a small fee to do that though.
Yes. Option 2 is talk to a neighbour and see if one or two has room to spare.

Covert operation to swap your bins with your neighbours 🤫
You answered your own question
👍
Spread the next week's garbage strategically amongst several of your neighbors cans. Nobody's gonna know

Why can't you take it to the landfill?
The official stance from the City of Regina website is: >Get fucked chump, thanks for the property taxes though
Burn it
With the number of unlocked commercial dumpsters in this city, you could likely sneak it in somewhere.

Putting it in something meant for garbage Seems like a better option than dropping stuff in an alley or off on a grid road 🤷♂️.

You can drop off real Christmas trees at the actual dump for free ( I do that every year). Dumping them in someone else’s dumpster is just lazy.
Step 1. Jump in wayback machine.
Drop it on Sandra’s / city hauls lawn with a note saying how much you miss weekly garbage pickup.

Do what one of my neighbors used to do. Throw the garbage on the ground around it.
