Organics / Green Bin Program & Pick-Up Schedule
The City of Martensville offers an Organics (Green Bin) Program in partnership with Loraas Organics. This program is available to residents through a subscription service.
Green Bin collection runs from May through the end of October, with bi-weekly pick-ups scheduled on Tuesdays. Collection alternates between North and South Martensville throughout the season. Residents can view the full collection schedule at Martensville.ca.
For more information about the program or to sign up for the Green Bin service, please contact the Utility Clerk at City Hall.
Roadway Safety Reminders
Pothole Alert: Melting snow and ice is a cause of potholes and rutting on roadways. Please drive carefully and approach standing water with caution, as it could conceal potholes. Report road damage to the city using the ‘Request for Service’ feature on our website.
Watch for Pedestrians & Cyclists: With an increase in people out walking and biking in spring, be sure to reduce your driving speed and be vigilant for pedestrians, especially in residential areas.

Yard Waste Site
Whether you’re trimming trees, raking leaves, or cleaning up grass clippings, the City’s yard waste site is a great resource for residents to dispose of yard waste responsibly.
This site is located along 10th Ave S., south of the off-leash dog park, and is open 7 days a week. Please visit Martensville.ca for more information on accepted and not accepted items.
Please note:
– The site is intended for local, residential use. It is not open to commercial contractors.
– The site is monitored to prevent the dumping of garbage. Please only dispose of accepted waste at the site.
– A pruning ban on elm wood is in effect for the province from April 1st – August 31, in response to the spread of Dutch Elm Disease (DED).
Spring Thaw and Runoff
With warmer temperatures arriving, City crews will be working to ensure streets, catch basins, drainageways, and culverts remain clear so water from the spring melt can drain properly and not back up onto roads or properties.
During the spring thaw, residents are encouraged to limit the use of back lanes, which serve as secondary access to properties. Heavy or repeated vehicle use in wet conditions can cause rutting, reduce drainage, and delay maintenance, as additional time and materials are required for crews to reshape lanes.
Residents with back lanes can also help ensure proper drainage during the spring melt by checking along rear fence lines and property boundaries and removing any debris or materials that could slow water flow or cause pooling.
A rapid melt may also lead to water seeping into basements or collecting on properties. Tips on how to protect your property during the spring thaw are available at Martensville.ca under Services for Residents > Water & Sewer > Drainage & Elevations
As temperatures continue to warm, potholes may begin to form. Permanent pothole repairs can only be completed when temperatures are suitable for the work. In the meantime, City crews will temporarily fill potholes with gravel.
To report a pothole, please call City Hall at (306) 931-2166, or report the issue online at Martensville.ca using the Report an Issue feature.
