The City of Timmins has cancelled the 2020 spring clean-up. 

The annual curbside clean-up was slated to start later this month, however in a news release the city said it is cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Instead, the hours at the Deloro landfill on Pine Street South will be temporarily extended and tipping fees will be waived for a limited time.

The waiving of fees runs from Monday, May 25 to Saturday, May 30. The landfill hours will be 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. during that time.

According to the city, the landfill will be closed Sunday, May 31. it will return to winter schedule and hours in June.

"While City administration and Council understand this program is near and dear to some of our residents, deferring Spring Clean Up to August or September defeats the purpose of the service, which is to clean up yards each spring," reads a news release.
