Zero Waste initiatives

Municipal Building Waste Audit

The Municipal Building Waste Audit aims to get City building operators and staff to think more about the waste they generate and how they can keep more of their waste out of landfills.

Levels of participation

Level 1: Required annual reporting

All municipal facility managers must report on:

  • Which materials the building generates.
  • The waste haulers servicing the facility.

Submit the Municipal Building Waste Audit Form by December 31 each year.

Level 2: Optional monthly zero waste reporting

Municipal facility managers can report on the waste management practices at their facilities in greater detail and learn more about opportunities for waste diversion. To do so, they complete the optional Monthly Zero Waste Reporting Form.

Building managers can achieve different levels of recognition as zero waste partners by:

  • Going above and beyond to pursue zero waste in their buildings.
  • Completing the monthly reporting form.
