Cochrane shifts Victoria Day waste and recycling collection to Tuesday, May 19
Waste and recycling collection in Cochrane that would normally take place on Victoria Day, Monday, May 18, will instead take place Tuesday, May 19, 2026.
The one-day change affects households normally scheduled for Monday curbside pickup, and means there will be no collection on the holiday Monday.
In a public notice, the Town of Cochrane said its Infrastructure Services department will be closed on Victoria Day, May 18.
The notice also asks residents to place bins at the end of their driveways on collection days and keep them at least two feet apart.
The town’s notice lists the same holiday shift for both garbage and recycling: Monday’s collection is moved to Tuesday, May 19, 2026.
