Green Bin Delivery Has Started
Owen Sound's Green Bin program collection begins in June of 2025, and green bins have started to arrive at eligible households.
Bins are being delivered by a third party contractor to the bottom of your driveway.
You do not need to be present to get your bin. If you are away for an extended time, have a friend or neighbour set it aside for you.
For Frequently Asked Questions about the Green Bin program - visit the green bin webpage here.
If you believe you have been missed for a bin delivery, or have other concerns, please submit a form here and select 'Green Bin Issue'.
In the event of a Canada Post strike, mail delivery to and from the City of Owen Sound will be disrupted. Residents are still responsible for paying tax and water bills on time. Interest and penalty charges will not be waived due to postal delays.
To avoid missed or late payments, we strongly encourage you to:

Formed in 1981 by the Ramoca Shrine Club and the Knights of Columbus, the Owen Sound Sports Hall of Fame is dedicated to the people who have participated in local sports, either as participants or as builders.
In 1984, the City Parks and Recreation Committee stated its support for the continuation of the Hall, and in 2004 the Owen Sound Sports Hall of Fame underwent a major renovation at the Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre.
Elections and inductions are held to honour new inductees every two years.
Past inductees include: the Owen Sound Mercurys, winners of the 1951 Allan Cup; the Owen Sound Greys, winners of the Memorial Cup in 1924 and 1927; the Owen Sound North Stars, winners in 1979, 1980 and 1989 of the President's Cup, which is symbolic of the Canadian Lacrosse Association's Senior 'B' Championship; the Bond Purple Raiders, winners of the 1957 Ontario Basketball League Championship; Stanley Cup winner Harry Lumley; and many other groups and individuals that have contributed to sport in Owen Sound.
