Green Bin Program - Billing Information

Green Bin Program Billing Questions for County Residents

Residents in Essex, Lakeshore, LaSalle and Tecumseh.

Starting the week of Oct. 21, 2025.

The collection program doesn’t start until October 2025, therefore a charge will not be included in your 2025 tax bill. We want to bill only for services you have actually received.

The 2026 charge will cover the charge of service for the 2026 year, as well as the service received from October to December 2025.

It will appear as a County charge on your local municipality’s tax bill.

Yes, there will be an annual charge on your tax bill associated with this program.

Residents in Amherstburg, Kingsville and Leamington will begin receiving service in November 2026, so they will see a charge in their 2027 tax bill.
