Peace Lutheran proudly presents the 2nd edition of the Blessing of the Bikes. On Saturday May 11 from 10am until 1pm, we will be joined by the Windsor Police Services for this Bicycle Safety event. Over 150 helmets have been donated for children who attend the event. Our Police Services will correctly fit the helmets and teach bicycle safety lessons. New this year, car seat checks will be performed making sure seats are properly installed in vehicles and children are securely buckled in. There will be a free BBQ, free bike raffles and other giveaways, too. Drive over or cycle your way to Peace Lutheran at 1985 Rossini at Tecumseh Rd. Let's keep our kids safe on the roads!
With spring upon us, the City of Windsor is reminding residents that they can once again take advantage of the Bulk Furniture Pickup Program in 2019. The program restarts for the season with its first round of pickups this month.
Collection is carried out by zones during the first four Fridays of the month. During holiday weeks, collection occurs on Saturday. To determine the collection day for your zone, simply call 311, Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding holidays.
“With spring cleaning just getting underway for many residents, we want to remind them that our bulk furniture pickup program is a great way to get rid of those larger items that they might be unable to transport to our public depot,” said Environmental Services Manager Anne Marie Albidone.
Specific criteria outlining what items are acceptable and not acceptable are outlined on the Residential Bulk Furniture Collection page.
There is a maximum of two items per pickup, and the cost for the service is $10 per item.
Bulk item collection began in 2017 operating on a 6-month schedule. At the time, the price was $20 per item. Last year, the price was dropped to $10 an item, and during the recent 2019 budget session council approved funding to make it a year-round service.
To book a pickup, call 311 Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding holidays, and 311 staff will advise you of available dates. A credit card can be accepted over the phone, or cash and debit can be accepted at our Customer Care Centres, though your actual appointment must still be booked first by calling 311.
For more details, watch our video with Jim Leether of Environmental Services. Additional information can be found including schedules, tips and restrictions, by visiting our Residential Bulk Furniture Collection page.
