Garbage collection
The town is divided into 2 collection areas (east and west) for household waste collection, each of which is serviced every 2 weeks, every other Thursday. Waste must be placed in the green bin provided by the Town of Hudson. Only this bin will be emptied. All other bins or bags will not be collected.
Consult the 2025 Collections Calendar
Instructions on the use of wheeled bins
The vehicles used for garbage and recycling collection are equipped with a mechanical arm to lift the 240 and 360L wheeled bins. Food waste collection is done manually. For your bins to be emptied, it is important to follow the instructions below. Failure to do so may result in your bin not being picked up and may, in some circumstances, lead to a fine.
The wheeled bins are the property of the Town: blue for recycling, green for garbage and brown for compost. Each bin has a serial number associated with an address. The bins must not be interchanged with those of your neighbours. We recommend that you put your address in the space provided on the bin.
Placement of the bins for collection
The placement of the bins must not prevent snow removal or street cleaning.
In winter, because of the snow removal, the bins must be placed in the driveway entrance. Place your bin 1 meter from the street (not in the street or on the sidewalk), wheels facing your home. If you have multiple collections on the same day, place your bins a minimum of 30 cm apart from each other, and a minimum of 1 metre away from any objects, trees, cars, etc., in order to allow room for the mechanical arm to access your bin.
When to put out your bins
Place your bin at the end of your driveway in the evening before the collection, as the trucks do not always pass at the same time so pickup may be very early in the morning. Be sure to store your bins by 8 pm on the day of collection.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning of the bins is strongly suggested, especially before repairs or replacement of a bin.
Food waste collection
Food waste collection takes place every week on Wednesdays. Bins should be placed on your private property a maximum of one metre from the curb.
Face the wheels towards your residence so the lid opens to the street. Ensure the bin is free of other objects within a perimeter of 60 cm.

Recycling collection

Face the wheels towards your residence so the lid opens to the street. Ensure the bin is free of other objects within a perimeter of 60 cm.

There will be no bulk pickup from December 2025 to March 2026. Items can be disposed of at one of the MRC’s Écocentres during this time. The service is free of charge with proof of residency. Some non-profit organizations will also accept household items that are in good condition, as well as some broken electrical appliances.
Écocentre
The Vaudreuil-Soulanges MRC Écocentres are regional facilities that serve as a complement to existing municipal collection services.
Unsure what to do with materials that are not accepted as part of municipal waste collection? Make an environmentally friendly choice by bringing them to one of your local Écocentres!
The Écocentre services are available only to residents of the 23 municipalities within the Vaudreuil-Soulanges MRC. Residents can deposit up to 12 m3 of materials every year, free of charge.
You must sort all of your materials before arriving at any of the Écocentres located in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges MRC.
Important: organic waste such as leaves, branches, soil and grass clippings are not accepted.
Make sure you bring proof of residence from any of the 23 Vaudreuil-Soulanges municipalities when you visit one of your local Écocentres
Écocentre services are included in the government’s list of essential services and residents are encouraged to bring their bulk items to one of the Écocentres in the MRC. As Éco-centres operate in a “self-service” format, residents handle their own materials.

Green practices to adopt
Grasscycling and leafcycling involve leaving grass clippings on the lawn after mowing and shredding dead leaves instead of collecting them in the fall. In addition to requiring less effort, these methods provide a natural fertilizer to enrich your lawn or spaces.
Home Composting: Properly processing green waste helps reduce the negative impacts associated with landfilling and creates quality compost.
