The new recycling collection depot in Fort Frances appears to be working too good.
Bins, allowing residents to drop off materials at any time of the year, filled to capacity over the weekend.
Operations and Facilities Manager Doug Brown says that led to some additional cost for the town to empty them.
"On Saturday I had to have a guy come in at a four-hour call out to empty the depot," says Brown. "Then on Sunday I had to do the same thing. I don't know if its a Christmas rush because of all the stat holidays and the schedule changes."
Brown says he's not discouraging people from using the depot, but resident should make ever effort place their recycling at the curb on their regular pick-up days.
